Action Team Chairs
• The co-chairs of each Action Team (AT) are meant to
serve as thought partners to the backbone staff
facilitating the monthly AT meetings.
• Primary functions of the co-chair:
– Represent the AT at Policy Team (PT)
– Help the backbone staff make connections across the
various pieces of the effort’s work,
– Represent the PT perspective during AT meetings
– Share details of the AT meeting discussions back to PT.
• The primary function of the co-chair from the AT is to
contribute content expertise to the AT meeting
agendas, discussions, and decisions.
• In addition to attending the ~2 hour meeting per month,
the co-chair role requires an additional investment of 2-4
hours / month, depending on the workload / stage of
the group.
