New Head of Public Relations

Awesome Nakis! Congrats! You’re going to be great!!!

Hello and thank you all for your warm congratulations!

I have a lot of things in the planning stages! Those of you who know me, I'm a big fan of consolidation and surge methodology. So, here's sort of my plan for everyone to be aware because I'm also big into that transparency thing and communal working.

1. Internal Consolidation: I'm going to work to identify what resources we have now, update various documentation needs, and identify current team members. This will begin to identify what we may or may not be missing and help me gain a better appreciation of the status of everything!

2. External Consolidation: I'm going to push out a bunch of surveys and data calls. This is going to be very important for everyone to partake in if possible. This helps the PR team know what people are feeling, what people want, and ultimately how best to serve the community. If too few people respond, we can't respond to actual issues, just what we think the issues are.

3. Formation: Once we get consolidated, I want to begin to formulate a plan on addressing needs/concerns/avenues raised by surveys and the needs of the Temple.

4. Surge: Once we have the planning stages of Formation done, we will begin initiating various plans. As a great example of why I prefer surging for most things (flexibility is key, always) is if we view Twitter and Facebook to be partners, I want to ensure we are ready to do both Twitter and Facebook at the same time. We have a lot of self-referential links or data, and I want to ensure that when people observe something, it all reflects current things.

5. Consolidate: Once we get the ball rolling on operations, we'll begin reviewing their impacts and continually adjust based on feedback. It's important to ensure we are heading in the right direction or being able to respond to new stimuli or resources.

6. Go back to Stage 2.

This is going to be a lot of work, but it's fulfilling work and I will be inviting people to join us on this grand adventure who have a drive for the uncertain waters of Public Relations and Marketing as we get going!

May the Force be with you all,

Nakis
