Hi all: Just a reminder to complete the survey by Monday. I've completed it and encourage you to do so as well. Please, make the time this weekend if you haven't already. Thanks. 73 Rick - K5UR ... -----Original Message----- From: Shelley, Barry, N1VXY (CEO), N1VXY (CEO) <bshelley@arrl.org> To: arrl-odv <arrl-odv@arrl.org> Sent: Tue, Sep 18, 2018 3:54 pm Subject: [arrl-odv:27588] FW: Today / Tomorrow Survey ARRL ODV: I just checked with Mintz & Hoke and only 4 people of the 35 members of the Board family on ODV have completed the survey requesting you to describe the organization today and how you would want it to be described in the future. I have to say I’m pretty disappointed with the participation. This is an opportunity for the elected leaders of the organization to formally help in setting the direction for the organization and participate in the discussion of where the ARRL is going. We’ve talked a lot about making the ARRL attractive to the new Amateurs and this is an important part of the process. It’s a big responsibility to consider how we may need to change the organization to help it grow. Change is hard, I understand that. And this survey makes you think. But that’s exactly why you need to participate with your opinions. There is no right or wrong answer, but your opinion is important and I would think you would want it considered. The original date to complete your participation was tomorrow, but I’ve bought some additional time from Mintz & Hoke. The new (and final)deadline is Monday, September 24th. PLEASE, take the approximately 15 minutes it requires to complete the survey. Again, the link for participation is: https://caffeinated.wufoo.com/forms/x1r2otq00tz3y25/ Thank you in advance for your participation in this important work. 73, Barry J.

Your input is important to this process and is key to laying out a direction for the future. To participate in this process, there is a link below to three questions to which we would like you to respond. The input will be collated and presented as part of the presentation to the Board expected for the January meeting. The request from Mintz & Hoke is also included below. If you would like your input to be included, please complete the simple questionnaire by next Wednesday, September 19th. I urge you to participate in this important effort. 73, Barry J. Shelley, N1VXY Chief Executive Officer ARRL, Inc. The national association for Amateur Radio (860) 594-0212 www.arrl.org Survey Prompt: Please use the link below to participate in our today/tomorrow survey, as a step in the positioning and messaging development process for ARRL. There are 3 questions and no wrong answers. The purpose of this is to ask each member of this group to explain ARRL in simple terms, in two ways. To identify and help us to see what themes are top-of-mind when talking about ARRL today and also when talking about the organization you envision for the future. Some differences amongst the responses may be subtle and some may be dramatic, and they may signify a shift in thinking that could prove important to the organization. This survey and the resulting data will help us to identify those differences. https://caffeinated.wufoo.com/forms/x1r2otq00tz3y25/ Thank you, Tim ----------------------------------------- Timothy Drugan Account Executive Mintz + Hoke 40 Tower Lane Avon, CT 06001 p: 860-679-9788 e: Timothyd@mintz-hoke.com http://www.mintz-hoke.com http://www.mhmediaonly.com DISCLAIMER AND CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended for addressed recipient(s) only.
