Management team and administrators

The main platforms 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...

GitBook (edit access optional)

See

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.

Notes:

1. Airtable: Get to know it's features, it's super-useful. E.g., 'views' provide different pictures of the same information. 'Link' field types connect different tables by their primary keys, allowing information and calculations to flow back and forth.

2. Airtable table descriptions: as well as by hovering over the '(i)' symbol for each tab. Many of the columns in each tab also have descriptions.

3. Additional Airtable security: We also keep more sensitive in this AIrtable encrypted, or moved to a different table that only David Reinstein has access to.
