While the core team guides the project and makes strategic decisions,
it is important that ongoing consultation with the wider project team occurs.
Without ongoing
consultation with the wider project
team there is a risk that decisions
made will be unacceptable to others.
In some cases, this could jeopardize
the project.
Example
If the core team takes a view on
the evidence base and proceeds to measure
practice accordingly, the measurement
results may have little impact on the
wider team if they do not agree with
the core team�s view of the evidence.
Ongoing consultation can occur through the representative nature of
team membership. Individual members of the core team have a responsibility
to liaise with their own constituency with respect to key project decisions.
Keep notes of all
meetings and circulate these to everyone
involved.
