A. Hower motioned to approve the minutes of the Executive Committee meeting for October 13, 2016. R. Johnson seconded. Motion approved.
President Garrett reviewed the details for the January 2017 Executive Committee meeting which will be held at Kennesaw State University. She reminded everyone they will need to arrive on Wednesday, January 25, 2017 evening so we can begin at 9A on January 26, 2017. She reminded the Executive Committee that she needs comments for M. Drechsler Sharp’s evaluation by October 31, 2016.
President Garrett and the Executive Committee discussed presenting a memorial resolution for Ted Miller at the November board meetings. We will collect comments from those who knew him and share with new board members so they can have a deeper history of CAS. A. Hower will use some of these comments to create a resolution.
M. Drechsler Sharp led us in a discussion of the McKinley Market Research report. Representatives from McKinley will present the findings to the Board at the November meeting. We will send the report to Board members in advance so they are prepared to ask questions and engage in discussion. President Garrett will reach out to R. Keeling and ask him to tie his Monday report of the Future Directions committee to the report findings. J. Testani and M. Drechsler Sharp will identify key slides and organize them around the recommendations. The Executive Committee discussed some of the recommendations in the report, how to tie them to our strategic planning process, how to ensure that our time with the Board is productive so that we can leave the meeting with clearly identified action items. We will continue this discussion at the Saturday, November 12, 2016 Executive Committee meeting.
President Garrett requested that the Executive Committee let her know of any agenda items we might have for the November Executive Committee or Board of Directors meetings. She reminded us that G. Henning will be giving feedback to the Cross-functional and Multi-standard working groups and to make sure we include our feedback in the shared docs if we have not done so. She reminded us that the deadline for uploading documents is November 1, 2016.
M. Savage congratulated President Garrett on her new ACPA Diamond Honoree status.
G. Henning motioned to adjourn and R. Johnson seconded. We adjourned at 2:32P.
