- Staff Summit 2013: New York City, USA
- The majority of the OWASP Staff met for 4 days in New York city for a week long staff working summit.
- Topics covered include: global marketing, international accounting, SalesForce, project lifecycle, project marketing, chapter funds, etc.
- A visual workflow for the projects lifecycle was discussed and outlined.
- Project funds allocation guidelines were discussed.
- Operational set up in SalesForce for projects was discussed and planned.
- Projects in SalesForce
- All existing project meta data has been entered into SalesForce.
- Currently, I am working on developing the projects dashboard and reporting work flow within SalesForce.
- Kate and I discussed an organisational structure within SalesForce that we can build and use to manage our projects.
- SalesForce portals were discussed as a long term solution for our project leaders, project initiative job management, and user data.
- Short term solution is to create an efficient workflow for me to manage all of this data while our portals are being developed.
- Project Lifecycle Info-graphic
- The Ops Team had a long discussion about the project lifecycle, and the visualisation of that information.
- I wanted to be sure my doodles would make sense to individuals unfamiliar with the process.
- Several adjustments were made based on team feedback.
- I am sourcing different design agencies for an info-graphic quote.
- Internal Marketing Plan
- The Ops Team had a long discussion about our marketing needs, marketing relationships, and deliverables.
- We went through each line item and discussed the deliverable in details.

- Our list has been communicated to the Marketing company hired to create our deliverables.
