16:14:18 <Zakim> agendum 2 -- Github Issue #348 Continue editing Governance and Oversight -- taken up [from Fazio]
16:15:53 <JeffAdams-UN> Fazio Continuing conversation on what we want to update/change in this section
16:16:49 <CharlesL> https://github.com/w3c/maturity-model/issues/348
16:16:49 <gb> https://github.com/w3c/maturity-model/issues/348 -> Issue 348 Oversight missing (by iadawn)
16:18:11 <JeffAdams-UN> Fazio In governance and oversight and looking at diversity and inclusion. We changed that to disability inclusion in the opening paragraph.
16:18:23 <JeffAdams-UN> Sheri_B-H we should do the same
16:20:39 <JeffAdams-UN> Fazio Looking at training on accessibility culture, knowledge and skills. Is that redundant?
16:21:20 <JeffAdams-UN> Sheri_B-H should that be there because that's more of a knowledge and skills proof point?
16:22:06 <Mark_Miller> plans are in place for providing accessibility knowledge and skills relevant to each individual’s position
16:24:00 <JeffAdams-UN> Fazio We'll replace with the statement Mark inserted from last week's notes so it's consistent phrasing.
16:24:55 <JeffAdams-UN> Mark_Miller Let's address the final bullet on optimize so it's also consistent with the language.
16:26:07 <SusiPallero> SusiPallero has joined #maturity
16:26:17 <SusiPallero> present+
16:26:39 <JeffAdams-UN> Fazio Moving to optimize proof points and looking at usage of culture.
16:26:53 <JeffAdams-UN> JeffAdams-UN Could remove "culture" and change to "organization"
16:28:12 <JeffAdams-UN> Sheri_B-H Also remove "sensitivity"
16:28:49 <Sheri_B-H> there's a strong organization awareness, appreciation, and support for all aspects of ICT accessibility and people with disabilities
16:30:15 <Sheri_B-H> all employees understand the importance of ICT accessibility and how it fits within their roles and responsibilities. They also appreciate the value of disability inclusion within and outside the organization
16:30:34 <Mark_Miller> all employees understand the importance of ICT accessibility and how it fits within their roles and responsibilities. They also appreciate the value of disability inclusion within and outside the organization
16:31:43 <JeffAdams-UN> Fazio reviewing proof points.
16:32:43 <CharlesL> 3.4.2.1 Organizational Culture of Disability Inclusion
16:33:36 <Fazio> q?
16:34:44 <JeffAdams-UN> Sheri_B-H Needs to focus on the "executive" part of this.
16:35:49 <JeffAdams-UN> Sheri_B-H Disability inclusion leadership
16:40:20 <JeffAdams-UN> Sheri_B-H "High level leadership" could replace "executive" to cover more orgs
16:40:43 <JeffAdams-UN> Fazio Perhaps "Executive and other top level leadership"?
16:41:16 <JeffAdams-UN> Sheri_B-H "Top level digital accessibility sponsor"
16:41:59 <JeffAdams-UN> janina This terminology could become a question. We should capture additional questions so we don't have to think of them later on the fly.
16:42:50 <JeffAdams-UN> Question: Have we effectively communicate the need for top-level support for this work, i.e. C-suite?
16:44:09 <Sheri_B-H> dedicated digital accessibility program leadership
16:44:16 <Sheri_B-H> for the second bullet point
16:45:24 <JeffAdams-UN> Fazio is governance and oversight specifically looking at top level leaders, or lower-level managers?
16:46:10 <JeffAdams-UN> Mark_Miller think is everyone, it's not just c-suite. it's trickle down.
16:46:43 <JeffAdams-UN> Mark_Miller governance makes sure things are getting done. high level leadership makes sure that the leadership below them understands the methodology. it trickles down.
16:47:05 <JeffAdams-UN> janina Plus organizational commitmenets so they know they're not doing something the organization isn't about.
16:47:43 <Sheri_B-H> third bullet: executive statement on digital accessibility commitment
16:49:05 <JeffAdams-UN> Fazio Focused on making sure we get the point down that it's all leadership invovled (this could be considered as an sub note to the earlier question).
16:50:20 <JeffAdams-UN> Fazio Financial commitment. No needed change to that point.
16:52:14 <JeffAdams-UN> Sheri_B-H Some inconsistency in the bullets under financial commitment. Also want to see words about sufficient funding.
16:53:03 <Sheri_B-H> sufficient funding is committed for activities to advance maturity across Dimensions
16:53:35 <Sheri_B-H> sufficient funding is committed for activities to advance maturity across Dimensions to achieve the goals and metrics
16:54:03 <Sheri_B-H> sufficient funding is committed for activities to advance maturity across Dimensions to achieve defined goals and metrics
16:55:25 <JeffAdams-UN> We'll pick up with 3.4.2.3 at the next meeting.
