As a member of the COI group team, members will participate based on your diligent management and managers will facilitate the connection of AU subject-matter experts with others on topics of interest to the community. We all have full-time responsibilities, but in only a few hours a week you and your fellow COI group managers can help the AU network address issues, critique approaches and improve the intellectual foundation of proposed solutions. By spending a few minutes each day fostering and facilitating communications, group managers harness the COI’s collective wisdom and help AU discover whether COIs can spark the organizational agility called for in the AF Strategy and Future Operating Concept. We hope to maintain between two and five managers on each group’s team.
