Board member proposes 45-minute Nexus communications training at Aug. 10 meeting
Summary
A board member suggested inviting Nexus to provide a roughly 45-minute training at the end of the Aug. 10 board meeting on appropriate communications and do's/don'ts for board members; members discussed timing and whether to delay evaluations to avoid an overly long meeting.
A board member proposed that Nexus deliver an educational session at the end of the board's Aug. 10 meeting to review do's and don'ts for board members when speaking to groups and to clarify appropriate conduct.
The board member described the session as roughly a "45 minute" training aimed at keeping members "on the up and up," saying it would be useful for anyone who plans to talk to groups about district business. The member said participation would be optional for those who do not plan to speak publicly. Board members discussed scheduling and whether to postpone board evaluations so the Aug. 10 meeting would not become excessively long.
Board members agreed the Aug. 10 meeting will be longer to accommodate the presentation and that evaluations could be delayed to a subsequent meeting if preferred. No formal vote or directive was recorded to require attendance; the training idea was discussed as an informational proposal to be added to the Aug. 10 agenda.
