Reminder: Town hall 2 p.m. tomorrow to discuss UC ANR Strategic Plan

Vice President Glenda Humiston will host a Virtual Town Hall on Wednesday, Jan. 18, from 2 p.m. to 3 p.m., to discuss UC ANR's new five-year Strategic Plan. The plan defines 15 goals to enhance UC ANR's research and extension mission, support employees and volunteers, address financial stability, bolster administrative excellence and increase awareness of UC ANR's value. Members of the senior leadership team will present the main points of the plan and address any questions you may have.

The strategic plan, which can be viewed at http://ucanr.edu/stratplan1.10.2017, will guide us as we “operationalize” our Strategic Vision 2025.

In her Jan. 10 message, VP Humiston wrote, “As you read through the strategic plan, please think about how your work aligns with the goals in the plan. I consider this to be a living document that we will modify, add to, and improve upon over time, so your feedback is not only welcome, it's vital.”

The town hall will be held in the Valley rooms at the ANR building in Davis and via Zoom at https://ucanr.zoom.us/j/416321603. Please test the Zoom link in advance. If you need to download Zoom, go to https://zoom.us/download. To join via mobile device, use the mobile app.

May 20 town hall with VP Humiston to introduce Staff Assembly and Principles of Community

Plan to join the May 20 town hall to learn about the new Staff Assembly and Principles of Community! All ANR staff and academics are encouraged to participate.

1:30 to 2:30 p.m.                                                           
Friday, May 20, 2016

VP Glenda Humiston will

• share her vision for Staff Assembly and take questions about the new organization. The Staff Assembly will give staff a collective voice to senior leadership, offer opinions and recommendations on policies, processes and programs, foster an understanding of ANR's mission and offer career training and professional development.
• discuss the new Principles of Community,which was also formed as a result of the Work Environmental Assessment to document the values that will create a more welcoming and inclusive work environment. The Principles of Community will be a tool for education and training.

As a follow up to the ANR Work Environment Assessment, VP Humiston formed a committee of ANR staff to draft the Principles of Community, structure and bylaws for the Staff Assembly. All of the UC campuses have a Staff Assembly, as does UCOP and Lawrence Livermore Labs. All ANR staff — no matter the appointment type, including county-paid staff — are part of the new Staff Assembly.

How you can participate:

If you will be at 2801 Second Street on May 20, please join the town hall in the San Joaquin Valley and Sacramento Valley rooms.

If you plan to join the call remotely, we encourage you to gather with others to use one computer and/or speaker phone because the number of connections is limited.

• Adobe Connect: http://uc-d.adobeconnect.com/allanr

You should be able to hear and see the presentations. If you haven't used Adobe Connect before using the computer, you may want to log in ahead of time in case it requires you to download a plug-in. Access Adobe Connect through your ANR Portal (in the right column).

• ReadyTalk: If you do not have access to a computer with speakers or you just want to listen in, you can call in to ReadyTalk directly using a telephone:

Call-in: 866-740-1260
