Good points all around.

I'm sure that not only myself would be interested in your planning checklist if you're willing to post it.

Thanks for the ideas.

I find that when I run events I end up creating notes for "next time" to iteratively improve. Events I run tend to be cyclical.

Do you organize information after an event from what you've learned, and if so, how do you incorporate what you learned from "last time"?

Have you experienced other stakeholders pushing back on changes that you are implementing because of your notes, but they think everything went fine?

Same here, though I can look back at my documents and say that for 3 of my 5 years at UMB, I received no raise, and twice I received a 3% COLA raise. I left for multiple reasons, one of which was I was told every year that we were getting COLA raises, but then was later told that my position didn't qualify. It was...frustrating.

I will say, that I was admin, and the faculty had no such issues.
