- Glossary
- In order to facilitate our group discussion during the organizational compass, we have prepared a list of key words and what they mean in this context.
Feel free to prepare by finding a translation in your language.
- purpose – the intention with the network. What is the reason for a Northern Europe Wikimedia collaboration to exist?
- vision – a dream for the future. What do we want to achieve in the next five years?
- leadership – what values should characterize our leadership to achieve the purpose. A guide for ourselves to know what is important when when leading onself. It is not about identifying someone as a leader, but to identify what kind of leadership is important for the group.
- community – who is involved? Volunteers, partners, allies and mission aligned organizations. Actors and stakeholders.
- management – how to organize our work and communicate with each other.
