   • Tony joins
6. Review action items
   • 2058 Woody will create Strategic Dashboard criteria metrics for product Quality. Ballot quality measurement was in progress with Austin and has not yet been completed with Ballot Desktop analysis. Pat confirms that this was referred to TRAC and is not completed yet. This will be closed and 2059 referred to TRAC and assigned to Pat.
   • 2189 list of ORC liaison responsibilities assigned to Freida. She will work with Melva on this.
   • 2190 Monday Q1/Q2 cochair/facilitator training topics: Melva comments that some projects were created for facilitator training but not with respect to a Monday Q1/Q2 schedule. This would be Q1/Q2 of non-plenary meetings. Discussion ensued. Melva mentioned Tooling, Publishing, Vocab and MnM facilitator training were targeted. Woody notes that other types of facilitation were suggested but the existing facilitator groups are understaffed. Perhaps a general "facilitation" training is needed with some specialty training where needed. Paul has arrived and agrees that FTSD had that discussion. Woody notes that better understanding of the need for facilitation in the specific areas is a goal. Facilitator training, not co-chair training is of more interest. Close 2190 and pursue general facilitator training with facilitation skills and different skills for the individual work groups will be handled by those work groups. Melva notes that Education does not have the bandwidth to manage it. Education, Vocab, Project Services should be cosponsors, to figure out general facilitator toolset needed. Need to identify someone having good facilitation skills to lead the effort. Perhaps instead of a Monday Q1/Q2 we could do a Tuesday AM session - Melva suggests a set of webinars/tutorials so that their time can be better used at the WGM. Calvin asks if we have measurements on what kind of facilitators we need of each type to understand the shortage. Woody recounts that conformance facilitators were the discussion from Monday night's FTSD meeting. To what work group would such facilitators belong, to define the skillset for those facilitators; they would liaise between their group and the WG for which they facilitate. Minutes from FTSD-F2F-20140120 reviewed. Woody suggests the Steering Division should take another run at it, working with other WGs like Education to develop it. Melva comments on the role for Project Facilitators for which Freida notes that a job description exists. Woody notes that harmonization proposals were suggested to be submitted by vocabulary facilitators and setting requirements in this space is an issue with creating roadbocks to the process. Pharmacy has a WG project facilitator keeping track of all projects in Pharmacy instead of individual project facilitators. We need to offer training for roles that are required on projects. Offering the training to cochairs discussed. Melva suggests Woody send Melva an invitation when FTSD will discuss and she will try to obtain representation. Other good model facilitators discussed. Lorraine suggests that TSC members send suggestions to Ken; though Ken will allow the recommendations to be anonymous.
   • 2191 implementation references - reviewed 2012-01-17_TSC_WGM_Agenda; opportunities missed to collect this information at HIMSS meetings. No longer a pressing issue; close tracker.
7. Nominations committee: TSC appointments are typically made at the May WGM but earlier would be of preference for Melva to be involved in the email trail leading up to the WGM as well as schedule planning for the WGM. Others willing to serve on nominations committee please submit names by next Monday.
