Management team and administrators

The main platforms needed for the management team are outlined below with links provided.

Slack group and channels

Please ask for group access, as well as access to private channels, especially "management-policies". Each channel should have a description and some links at the top.
Slack is for quick conversations and coordination.

Airtable

Please ask for an invitation. Airtable is an interactive online relational database. Only our management team, and selected others (with careful controls) should have access to the Airtable.
Each of the 'tables' in the Airtable is explained in the first ('readme') table...
The Airtable is serving several functions at the moment, including:
  • Project management (see "broad_goals" and "tasks")
  • "CRM" & external comms (see "people-orgs", "participants_etc", "org-link", "text_templates", ...)
  • Editorial/evaluation management (discussed below)
  • Data storage ("output_eval")
  • Surveys and internal discussion/consensus ("questions", "responses")
Going forward, some of these functions may be replaced by other tools
Read: Unjournal Airtable Guide (Google Doc: internal access only) for concise understanding of what you need to know and use most. Feel free to ask sidebar questions.

Gitbook (edit access optional)

Management team: You don't need to edit the Gitbook if you don't want to, but we're trying to use it as our main place to 'explain everything' to ourselves and others. We will try to link all content here. Note you can use 'search' and 'lens' to look for things.

PubPub

Access to the PubPub is mainly only needed for doing 'full-service evaluation manager work'.

Google drive: Gdocs and Gsheets

Please ask for access to this drive. This drive contains meeting notes, discussion, grant applications and tech details.
