Format
Each team or Manageriat should compose a one-pager consisting of bullet points in these areas:
- Accomplishments
- Challenges Being Faced
- Work Expected in Next Quarter
A section of metrics can follow these and can run on to a second page. There can be a small block of expository text before the accomplishments section, highlighting any particular themes emerging from the bullet points.
Last quarter's submission (FY2008 Q2) as a guide is attached to this page.
The latest published quarterly reports are always available at http://web.mit.edu.ezproxyberklee.flo.org/ist/about/reports.html -- here's where to go see what the other directorates say about themselves.
Remember that this report is mainly a reporting-upward document within IS&T, namely to ist-vpstaff.
(Plans to broadly share these reports with the DLC community or MIT Senior Leadership have never materialized.)
