Hi Kurt,

On your second point, I take it you mean you have had a request from the former Chair of the IDNs EPDP to be interview for this initiative. I don't recall having had "considerable interactions with the Board" then but we did have 3 Board Liaisons who attended calls regularly who may provide reinforcement of what "worked / didn’t work / avoided obviating the bottom-up process" (as you say), so I would not be opposed to such an interview, should we have the time and resources needed to handle preparation for it.

Kind regards,
Justine

Hi Board Readiness'ers:

I hope you are all doing well:

Two things:

First, here is the list of upcoming interviews with those who have confirmed attendance. So that we can plan the interviewers / note takers, please let us know if you are planning to attend. (I apologise that the times listed are Brisbane times but I think you know when the interviews are in your tome zone by the interviewee. I am in UTC+10hours.)

Interview Schedule

Tue, 24 Jun, 6AM (UTC+10 - Brisbane) Roger Carney (Thomas, Kurt)

Thu, 3 July, 2AM Paul McGrady (Prudence, Kurt)

Tue, 8 Jul, 11PM Jeff Neuman (Justine, Prudence, Kurt)

Wed, 9 Jul, 6AM Cheryl Langdon-Orr (Susan, Kurt)

Mon, 14 Jul 11PM Becky Burr (Justine, Prudence, Kurt)

Tue, 15 Jul. 11PM Christa Taylor (Justine, Prudence, Kurt)

Prudence, can you take the lead on interviewing Paul McGrady?

Also, please complete the poll for Marc Trachtenberg: https://doodle.com/group-poll/participate/dy23PLwe

Second, I have had a request to be interviewed by the former Chair of the IDN EPDP. I hope you don’t think it inappropriate by me raising this with this team. While the Board hasn’t rejected any of the IDN EPDP recommendations, that team did have considerable interactions with the Board as they worked. It is potentially valuable to our study to see how that worked / didn’t work / avoided obviating the bottom-up process.

On this second thing, let me know what you think.

Best regards,

Kurt
