CNI Spring 2020 Virtual Membership Meeting

Rebranding “IT Projects” as “library projects” signals to the organization that, as with the strategic planning process, the success of these initiatives is an organization-wide responsibility. Using “Designing IT Projects to Advance the Learning Organization” in EDUCAUSE Review as a jumping-off point, this panel of contributors to the original article will discuss a number of strategic practices used to underscore the organization’s collective responsibility for project outcomes and reinforce the kinds of organizational values and practices characterized by the learning organization. The strategies that the panel will discuss should provide a framework and models for designing projects to advance the learning organization and help create an environment where systems thinking and collaborative learning are the norm and where, as a community, new ways of working to achieve shared values are developed and integrated.
