On Saturday 14 December, Electrify Bouddi held a planning workshop to commence the process of developing a strategic plan to see the organization through the next three years.
Electrify Bouddi is above all a community organization, and the day was a huge success, with 50 people bringing their vision and ideas for our community to the workshop.
We kicked off with a hope filled and inspiring story of Electrify Bouddi Chair, Mark Ellis’ future vision for Bouddi. Lots of post-it-notes, conversations and presentations later, we have pages of fantastic ideas to move forward with.
NEXT STEPS
We will be circulating a summary of the workshop outcomes shortly, and there will be an opportunity for all members to provide further comments and input to the strategic planning process.
There will be a follow up session from 2 -4 pm on 1 February 2025, to critique and comment on the draft Strategic Plan developed from this first workshop and members feedback. We will communicate further details closer to the date.
The day wasn’t all work. The session was followed by drinks and some delicious food, overlooking the beach on a beautiful Killcare evening, and celebrating the end of a productive year for Electrify Bouddi.
