121001 - Follow up ref SDS 28 0000.
121003 - ..
121004 - We will meet tomorrow morning for SDS training and to explore useful
121005 - collaboration for the Communication Manager role. Max suggested some
121006 - ideas when I dropped off a document for Tom, I called and got some
121007 - input from Wayne Wetzel at DNRC and from Bill DeHart at PG&E, who have
121008 - been through the process. Tested SDS transmission via internet, and
121009 - it seems to be working okay, so need to coordinate with COE computer
121010 - support folks.

121501 - Email Transmission is Sporadic, Need Investigation/Correction
121502 -
121503 - The email I sent last night ref SDS 28 line 66 to confirm explanation
121504 - of the SDS record using notes from meeting with PG&E and CDWR, ref SDS
121505 - 7 line 151, did not transmit correctly, similar to the problem
121506 - reported yesterday, ref SDS 27 line 56. I sent it twice and Tom sent
121507 - back messages saying both were scrambled. I broke it into two pieces
121508 - and these seemed to be received okay. I also printed a copy and took
121509 - it to Tom's office.
121511 - ..

121518 - Notes for Claim Team Meeting 960919 Issued to Attendees
121519 -
121520 - Tom received the finalized version of the notes on the claim team
121521 - meeting last Thursday, ref DIP 1 line 26. He made distribution via
121522 - internet, per ref SDS 27 line 174 and the transmittal, ref DIP 1 line
121523 - 26.
121525 - ..
121526 - Tom did not indicate that I should follow up with attendees, per ideas
121527 - set out in the transmittal at ref DIP 1 line 30 issued at ref SDS 27
121528 - line 176.

121533 - SDS Training Scheduled for 960925 0645
121534 -
121535 - We scheduled time for SDS on-line demonstration tomorrow morning
121536 - early. I will come in oa 0630 - 0700.
121537 -
121538 - Since the email for ref DIP 3 line 28 failed, I brought a printed copy
121539 - of notes for the meeting with PG&E and CDWR that explains the SDS
121540 - format which we discussed yesterday, ref SDS 28 line 66, and shows how
121541 - the Communication Manager role supports a manager, ref SDS 7 line 154.
121542 -
121543 -
121545 - ..
121546 - Collaboration & Communication Manager Role
121547 -
121548 - We discussed briefly the goal of developing a useful collaboration,
121549 - per our objectives at ref SDS 19 line 103.
121550 -
121551 - Tom is thinking through how to apply the Communication Manager role.

1219 - Analysis
122001 - ..
122002 - Communication Metrics Supports Cost and Schedule Metrics
122003 -
122004 - At PG&E the Communication Manager role flowed naturally from the
122005 - process of CPM scheduling, which Bill and I just sort of fell into,
122006 - because it needed to be done and I could do it. The work at ref SDS 6
122007 - line 69, ref SDS 8 line 74, shows how CPM is a key analytic aspect of
122008 - Project Management that supports the people dimension of leadership,
122009 - where Bill focused his attention. SDS is a lower level of analysis,
122010 - so it compliments CPM. So doing the CPM which is now a recognized
122011 - management task, provided to apply SDS which is not yet understood.
122013 - ..
122014 - The CPM effort required interaction among all of the players and it
122015 - was impacted by most of the management activity. Besides attending
122016 - major meetings, Bill and I met daily when he was in the office, and
122017 - this wound up covering a broader range of subjects, permitting a means
122018 - to get stuff into SDS. He would call via cellphone while driving to,
122019 - from and between meetings to discuss understandings from meetings I
122020 - did not attend, so that everything that was important to contract
122021 - performance got integrated into SDS. He had access to the record
122022 - on-line so he was alerted to actions and informed. Meeting agendas
122023 - flowed from the SDS record.
122025 - ..
122026 - With Wayne at DNRC there was a lot of claim analysis that provided
122027 - regular interaction between the executive and Communication Manager,
122028 - which gave Wayne the opportunity to use that resource for a lot of
122029 - other stuff, ref SDS 4 line 187.
122031 - ..
122032 - At COE we need a similar avenue to provide regular interaction between
122033 - Tom and Rod. Tom has done a key aspect of claim analysis, at least
122034 - for now, so there is not enough work to support regular interaction on
122035 - that matter. There is minimal follow up entailed and it is isolated
122036 - from other matters impacting project performance. There is no CPM
122037 - support needed, as there would have been for the relocation project
122038 - they completed in June, but which we considered using SDS in February.
122040 - ..
122041 - This may be the area Tom wants to discuss tomorrow. Tom Benero
122042 - mentioned the other day a need for "communication support." ref SDS 22
122043 - line 58. What is the best avenue to use Communication Metrics as an
122044 - ally for Tom?
122045 -
122046 -
122048 - ..
1221 -
1222 -
1223 - 0927 called Wayne
1224 -
122401 - I explained the objective to jump start Commnication Metrics at COE.
122402 -
122403 - How do we develop the regualr interaction that makes SDS valuable?
122405 - ..
122406 - I posed a theoretical that if the Director of DNRC told Wayne that he
122407 - could use Communication Metrics, what would he do where there is not
122408 - an existing task like claim analysis or CPM, that affords a routine
122409 - way for the executive to daily interact with the Communication
122410 - Manager? Since Wayne is using SDS and has been through the experience
122411 - of discoverying the collaboration process, what is his take on how to
122412 - jump start the effort?
122414 - ..
122415 - We considered identifying 2 - 3 meetings for the Communication Manager
122416 - to attend, that occur regularly each week and that typically impact a
122417 - wide range of daily management activity by resulting in action items
122418 - that require follow up by the Communication Manager.
122420 - ..
122421 - I suggested following up with attendees at the last meeting, to go
122422 - meet with them and initially explain SDS, ref DIP 1 line 30. Maybe
122423 - this can be addressed when we meet tomorrow morning.
122425 - ..
122426 - I asked Wayne to send me a test SDS message, to see if I get the stuff
122427 - scrambled also.
122428 -
122429 - Received his message via internet in the afternoon and it
122430 - maintained the SDS format. He also returned a message I sent him
122431 - and it came back in the same format I sent it.
122432 -
122433 -
1225 - ..
1226 -
1227 -
1228 - 0940 called Tom
1229 -
122901 - Dutra Claim Meeting, 960920
122902 -
122903 - He did not get the notes for the Dutra meeting sent last night,
122904 - ref SDS 18 line 43 via, ref DIP 2 line 27, but did get the final
122905 - version of the Claim Team meeting notes.
122906 -
122907 - I sent the Dutra meeting notes again via internet, and also printed a
122908 - copy and took it to Tom's office for editing, since the email is so
122909 - far unreliable, ref SDS 30 line 43.
122911 - ..
122912 - Tom had people in his office, so I left the notes on Rose's chair,
122913 - (she was in Max's office).

621408 - Communication Metrics Project - Progress
621409 -
621410 - Max asked how our Communication Metrics project is coming along?
621411 -
621412 - I explained my sense that we are making good progress, and that Tom
621413 - and I are meeting tomorrow morning about how SDS manages information,
621414 - and will consider ways to apply the Communication Manager role.

621419 - DMMO Meetings
621420 -
621421 - Max asked if I am attending the DMMO meeting today?
621422 -
621423 - I explained Tom has not mentioned anything about it. He has been
621424 - focused on the Port of Oakland contract the past few days.
621426 - ..
621427 - Max went back to Tom's office and inquired about my attending the DMMO
621428 - meeting today, and Tom said he feels Communication Metrics is not
621429 - needed on those meetings.

621434 - ..
621435 - Max and I went downstairs to the lobby where he bought a cup of hot
621436 - chocolate for Rose, because she is not feeling well today.
621438 - ..
621439 - He noted the new manager is starting work in a few days, who will be
621440 - in charge of DMMO, and will report to Max. The manager will take some
621441 - time to get up to speed, and then Max will discuss using
621442 - Communication Metrics for DMMO meetings.

621446 - Contractor Claim Review Support
621447 - Oakland Project Meetings Need Support for Organizational Memory
621448 -
621449 - Max asked if I attended the weekly progress meeting yesterday for the
621450 - Oakland Harbor project?
621451 -
621452 - I did not attend the meeting yesterday because, so far, Tom Keesling
621453 - has not made an assignment for me to attend these meetings. I cannot
621454 - simply show up, without an express mandate from USACE management to
621455 - the project staff in the Oakland office.
621457 - ..
621458 - Max advised that weekly Progress Meetings are a good place to support
621459 - daily management. Max noted that, when he approved the Welch
621460 - contract, he intended Communication Metrics would capture the record
621461 - of organizational memory. Max feels the record of progress meetings
621462 - is a critical resource that Welch was hired to provide in order for
621463 - the project to succeed.
621465 - ..
621466 - I agreed that attending meetings falls under the scope of services for
621467 - Communication Metrics on the Oakland Harbor project, per discussion
621468 - with Tom on 960807. ref SDS 15 3333 More recently a few days ago on
621469 - 960920 Tom cited the need for organizational memory. ref SDS 25 BS4N
621470 - I further agreed that Com Metrics applied for progress meetings will
621471 - greatly increase the chances that the project will meet objectives and
621472 - requirements.
621474 - ..
621475 - I noted again that the Welch contract calls for performing assignments
621476 - as directed by Tom Keesling, and I have not been asked to attend
621477 - meetings on the Oakland Harbor project. Leadership must give an order
621478 - to put things in motion.
621480 - ..
621481 - Max said meetings impact success because they guide work that is
621482 - performed later. Typically, before work occurs, meetings are held
621483 - that influence (i.e., plan) who, what, when, where and how actual work
621484 - is accomplished. Max advised that he wants Communication Metrics used
621485 - for Progress Meetings on the Oakland project, so that USACE gets
621486 - experience using organizational memory. He noted the Welch contract
621487 - is a pilot test for Com Metrics to improve management, and meetings
621488 - are one of the weakest aspects of productivity, so that is the place
621489 - to test whether Com Metrics improves management.
621491 - ..
621492 - Since communication is a predicate to action, adding "metrics" to
621493 - communications from meetings, calls and correspondence, increases the
621494 - chance for an organization to succeed. There is a lot of evidence
621495 - that productivity of meetings is weak, and so offers a good target for
621496 - improvement by capturing a greater share of organizational memory, and
621497 - adding "intelligence," as Max intends for Communication Metrics; for
621498 - example on....

621518 - Max feels that Com Metrics should be used for meetings, per above,
621519 - ref SDS 0 9A9O, so that people gain experience to discover benefits of
621520 - adding "intelligence" to management by adding connections in SDS
621521 - records. People have to work with SDS records for a period of time in
621522 - order to learn; just telling everybody about SDS isn't enough. People
621523 - need consistent exposure to learn. This takes leadership.
621524 -
621525 - [On 961101 Tom Keesling, Assistant Chief, CONOPS, made the same
621526 - point about the importance of experience learning a new way of
621527 - working. ref SDS 38 8888

621530 - [On 031211 persistant exposure grows experience that overcomes
621531 - ignorance, fear, and denial that working intelligently saves
621532 - lives, time, and money. ref SDS 51 PE5Y
621534 - ..
621535 - Max asked what leadership should do?
621537 - ..
621538 - Leadership enables people to discover that "intelligence" is the best
621539 - way to avoid embarrassment and accountability for mistakes by reducing
621540 - mistakes rather than ignoring and covering up. Leadership empowers
621541 - people to obtain experience that, in the beginning, people are afraid
621542 - to acquire, by positioning people to experiment and pilot test tools
621543 - and methods they do not understand, and so fear may cause unwelcome
621544 - accountability for mistakes. Once people experience credit for
621545 - working intelligently they discover that accountability is a powerful
621546 - asset of good management by bestowing credit for doing good work that
621547 - saves time and money. But, making this discovery requires leadership
621548 - to help people start on the journey.
621549 -
621550 - [On 960828 self-esteeme seems threatened using Com Metrics to
621551 - capture organiztional memory. ref SDS 16 FX3O
621553 - ..
621554 - [On 990527 strong cultural forces prevent improving management.
621555 - ref SDS 47 1233
621557 - ..
621558 - Common sense from ignorance, fear and denial prevents people from
621559 - gaining experience using Communication Metrics for capturing and
621560 - applying organizational memory, so that people can discover that
621561 - adding "intelligence" to daily management is useful and cost
621562 - effective.
621564 - ..
621565 - People intuitively feel that Communication Metrics is an extra step
621566 - that adds "paperwork," which takes extra time and expense. Training
621567 - and daily experience from information overload, creates a paradigm, or
621568 - rule, that reducing "paperwork" by using communication skills to
621569 - expedite saves time and money. For example, on 950426 executives are
621570 - trained to be good talkers and listeners, ref SDS 12 4392, and to cut
621571 - corners on listening to understand and follow up details. ref SDS 12
621572 - 4022
621574 - ..
621575 - Communication Metrics to improve accuracy is counterintuitive for
621576 - saving time and money, because using SDS for deliberative analysis
621577 - seems like the opposite of expediting, i.e., it is deliberative. see
621578 - POIMS. ref OF 1 5418 and ref OF 1 3742
621580 - ..
621581 - Max said somebody has to write something down and "deliberate" at
621582 - least once in awhile. Everthing cannot be decided on the spot in the
621583 - "heat of battle," so-to-speak. This aligns with discusison on 890809
621584 - about advantage of support for communication to strengthen listening.

621592 - daily working information to provide a dynamic knowledge

621595 - ..
621596 - Organizational memory saves time and money for the organization, but
621597 - individuals have to capture it, and people, who are ignorant about the
621598 - price people pay for ignoring good management that uses intelligence,
621599 - instead fear that a record, which is good for the organization,
621600 - reduces wiggle room that enables deniability using good communication
621601 - skills to avoid accountability for mistakes, and get credit for good
621602 - results, by talking things out. see POIMS, ref OF 1 4079, see NWO.

621608 -
621610 - ..
621611 - Leadership with Broader Vision Solves KM Dilemma
621612 -
621613 - Common sense presents an innovation loop, also, dilemma. People want
621614 - organizational memory for the themselves, but not about themselves,
621615 - i.e., we want to know what others did, but we don't want others to
621616 - know what we did and said because it risks embarrassment and
621617 - accountability.
621619 - ..
621620 - As a result, cultural resistance prevents capturing organizational
621621 - memory. Since there is no constituancy for adding "intelligence" to
621622 - management that helps everyone do a better job, only leadership with a
621623 - broader vision can empower people to discover that "intelligence,"
621624 - which begins with capturing organizational memory, is not "paperwork,"
621625 - but rather is a core asset of enterprise, that builds and maintains
621626 - shared meaning, so people work together effectively. Accountability
621627 - can be retained, without increasing risk of personal embarrassment.
621628 - see NWO on "leadership." ref OF 3 5653
621630 - ..
621631 - Experience at DNRC and PG&E shows that people are initially shocked
621632 - and frightened seeing complex details and their name in the record.
621633 - After gaining experience using the record to improve daily work,
621634 - people discover organizational memory is a powerful ally, not a
621635 - shocking infringement or burden. see PG&E's report. ref DRP 1 3333
