Workflows for all projects (e.g., tasks, milestones, approvals, due dates etc.) are reviewed for accuracy, updated, documented, and continuously improved, in your scope of operations. Optimized so that projects can begin in advance of default start dates and be completed in advance of default due dates. Unnecessary work is eliminated, and solutions are standardized so the same problems are solved the same way every time. Victory not declared until every box is checked, and nothing is waiting on a follow-up.

All costs are accounted for and within budget. The costs of direct reports, journalists, and other resources are estimated, recorded, and actively managed to maximize quality within budget constraints.

The Outcome Hub resources and training

What we don’t have (YET!) for you to achieve your outcome(s):

The project management system has been broken. Fully functional and accurate Asana project templates. Task descriptions and default due dates are still inaccurate. You are needed to help improve this process because you are accountable for the results. We need you to help update processes and make sure they are accurate

Consequences and contingencies for missed deadlines, especially client deadlines, have not been utilized. These need to be operationalized. We need your help to operationalize them

No organized training system. We have SOPs, work instructions and Loom videos, but our onboarding process has wide gaps and we lack formal training. By looking at your seat outcomes, you need to help us see what is missing.

No formal training for Asana as a software

Writers and journalists have never been onboarded, trained, or given much of an SOP or instructions. This is one of the areas that you are going to have to help standardize and implement in order to achieve your outcomes

No current seat outcomes for coordinators. Overseas contractors have been trained on different tasks, but they have never taken ownership of a seat.You will have to make those seat outcomes, instructions and training and hold them accountable and provide resources

You cannot assume that the contractors can be accountable for, or even fully understand, any of the current tasks just because they have worked on them in the past.

In fact, it’s almost certainly the case that many of them will not be Yes on GWC of their outcomes, or a + on extreme ownership and you will need to replace them

No full time coordinators, most personnel are independent contractors on a part-time basis. Some contractors are from overseas, and are effective only with very clear instruction, and close oversight. You are accountable for their work. Training them and confirming the quality of their work is part of your outcomes.

No master content calendar

No editor. Currently the editor seat has been occupied with the company owner.

Your help will be needed to transition that editor work to (an)other seat(s).

Neither the editor nor the company owner can be the project manager of the News Digest, you have to take that away.

You cannot assume that the editor has been trained on or made a part of the process.

Many Looms don’t exist yet are not updated

Everyone who works with or for Fertility Bridge does business in these ways

Must Get, Want, and have the Capacity to achieve the outcomes aligned with the role

Must be a plus or a plus/minus on each of the five core values of Fertility Bridge

Leader specifies and judges the result of the outcome.

Must be on brand with Fertility Bridge and Inside Reproductive Health brand guidelines

Employee or contractor must specify exactly what is required to achieve outcome

Must be accountable in Asana

Must create Fertility Bridge assets in Fertility Bridge drives using Fertility Bridge account

Sound interesting? Great!

We’re looking for someone who can not only meet the Outcomes above but also someone who has a background in project management with a strong emphasis on ownership and not just "checking boxes". Experience with Asana is beneficial but not required.
