Hello everyone,
Wikimedia UK is continuing to consult Wikimedians on the charity's
strategic planning for 2014-19. There are some key components of this work
that would benefit from a wider input. These include the Strategic
Plan<https://wikimedia.org.uk/wiki/Strategic_plan_2014-2019>,
the model we have
used<https://wikimedia.org.uk/wiki/Strategic_and_operational_models>,
our Vision and
Values<https://wikimedia.org.uk/wiki/Vision,_values_and_mission_(proposed)>and
our five high-level Strategic
Goals<https://wikimedia.org.uk/wiki/Strategic_Goals>
.
There are a few things we're especially keen to hear from you about,
including:
- Does our planning represent the full range of activities we engage in,
and their aims towards our mission?
- Does it indicate how, and why, measurement will take place
- Are the measures appropriate (aligned with our aims) and achievable
(things we can actually measure)?
- Do you have ideas of other measurements, or tools we might use to
measure, our impact?
- Are the targets given
here<https://wikimedia.org.uk/wiki/Progress_on_Outcomes> ambitious,
achievable, and trackable?
- Which Outcome Measures we should be using against which to measure our
impact, and also what targets we should aim to meet by the end of January
2015.
- Given we will be associating our activities - including volunteer led
activities - with the aims and measures given, are you happy the strategy
represents a structure you can work with as a member of our community?
These plans are important because they establish a framework for our work
over the next five years and present ways for us to measure the success of
our activities.
The community consultation period is open until *28 February 2014* so
please do have your say before then.
Thanks and regards,
Stevie
