DESCRIPTION
People are the most important part of any system of Web Governance. Hire good people and they will generally find clever and innovative ways to get maximum bang for your buck. However, Roles and Responsibilities have not kept pace with changes in online activity. This has led to dangerous gaps in operations, as well as tension among staff due to competing claims over “who does what”. In this presentation, we explore how to restore ‘industrial peace’ by delivering the clear job descriptions your people need.TRANSCRIPT

Rational Response: Some people may
resist change simply because outcomes are

change if it is done in a cavalier manner without
appropriate framing.

Go placidly amid the noise & haste of your web team,
And remember what peace there may be in keeping silent.

Be on good terms with your Designers & Developers.
Speak your requirements quietly and clearly;
And listen to others,
Even dull Techies & Senior Managers;
They too have their story.
