Subject:         Nominations for State Leadership Team Meeting Facilitator DD: 12/08/17

The State Leadership Team (SLT) is seeking a highly motivated BLM-CA employee to assist with facilitation of the Face-to-Face (F2F) SLT meetings.  This is a unique work experience and provides a great opportunity to interact with state leadership. 

The SLT typically holds three F2F meetings each year.  The three meetings in 2018 will be the weeks of March 12th, June 11th and November 5th.  In the past, the SLT recruited facilitators from the Leadership Academy and the Emerging Leaders programs.  However, in a continuing effort to seek diverse and highly interested BLM-CA employees, the SLT is now reaching out to all BLM-CA supervisors and employees for nominations.  

SLT meeting facilitators lead weekly planning meetings and assist with the development of the agenda; complete assignments related to meeting coordination and logistics; and attend the SLT meeting to facilitate the agenda and breakout group sessions.  In addition, the SLT facilitator records meeting notes and assists with meeting setup and takedown.  The assignment would be for one year. 

Employees and supervisors are encouraged to submit nominations.  With each nomination, please include your name, office, contact information, statement of interest and resume.  All nominators must have the approval of their supervisor. 

Please send your nomination to Federica Lee, flee@blm.gov, by Friday, December 8, 2017.  Once selected, the new facilitators will assist with the planning for the next SLT meeting in Palm 

Springs, California in March. To obtain additional information regarding SLT meeting facilitation, feel free to contact Liz Meyer-Sheilds or Carly Summers, the current SLT facilitators, at eameyer@blm.gov - 916-978-4672 or csummers@blm.gov - 661-391-6146.
