Social Media Task Force Charter
  • At the joint meeting between the Strategic Board & Operational Management Board (OMB) during MYM, a discussion came up about the task forces and working groups that the councils have recently established or will be establishing soon.  The question was asked as to where a listing of the task forces or working groups charters could be found on the wiki.   
  • The charter is a document of the task force or working group and a communication tool to (and reviewed by) both the OMB and the Council Leadership Group so that if there are any synergies between councils, both the OMB and the Council Leadership Group would be aware of it.
