Board of Directors Meeting Minutes - 9 June 1999
Chairperson Presiding:
Mr Quinn immediately addressed the agenda items in order.
Mr Quinn read the selection criteria for the 1999 NMA Local Manager of the Year award and asked for comments and questions before proceeding. Several people asked for clarification or made comments to ensure that all BoD members agreed on the basic criteria. The BoD then began the nomination review process. Mr Quinn suggested that the BoD members read one nomination and then allow every member to comment in turn on the merits of that particular nomination and how it met the selection criteria. This process was repeated for all four nominations. The BoD members then moved to the next step involving a relative ranking of the nominees.
The BoD members began the second round of nomination review by reviewing each nomination in turn. The difference in the second round was that BoD members ranked each nomination relative to the others and discussed the available information in each nomination in detail. At this point the BoD members had a general idea of the general rank order or grouping of the nominations. However, an explicit statement of preference or voting process was not performed during this step. The next step would involve the selection of finalists.
The BoD members stated their preference during a third round of in turn comments. Mr Quinn recorded the votes. The result was that the original list of four nominees was reduced to two finalists. The next step was to meet with the BoD member who could not attend this meeting, Mr Bill Bartlett, and complete this process by selecting the winner and formally announcing the name.
The BoD members agreed to meet at 0900 on 10 June 1999 in the TAIS office of Mr Quinn. The purpose was to meet with Mr Bill Bartlett and complete the process of selecting the winner of the 1999 NMA Local Manager of the Year award from the two finalists.
The meeting was adjourned by Mr Quinn at 1030.
These minutes were prepared by Mr Thomas Quinn, TAIS.
