Questions to answer during planning and confirmation

  1. How many Kickoff Meetings will we host?
  2. Will the meeting(s) be held in person or virtually?
  3. How will participants sign up to attend?
    a. common options: sign up through a DORIS Calendly, calendar invitations sent by client internally
  4. While Kickoffs are usually standalone meetings, project engagement is better when Kickoff information is added to an existing mandatory or all-staff meeting
  5. Establish and confirm meeting date(s) + time(s)
    a. each standalone meeting is 30 minutes
    b. If needed, Kickoff content can be presented in 10-20 minutes 

  6. Upon confirmation, add details for the Kickoff Meeting(s) to the Project Charter, Ops Logistics, and send a calendar invitation (or ensure the client invites the project lead).
