A CNM Event Organizer (hereinafter, the Org) is an incumbent of the second-quarter CNM practice job (hereinafter, the Practice) that The Economic Group has developed to practically introduce CNM learners to event organizing. The Orgs generally practice in organizing CNMCyber events, including their preparation, moderation, and post-event activities. The Orgs may develop either:

  1. Those CNMCyber events that the Orgs are authorized to produce, or
  2. Those requirements that would allow hiring Careerprise contractors to develop those CNMCyber events that the Orgs don't produce directly, on their own.

The Practice belongs to the second quarter of CNMCyber Bootcamp (hereinafter, the Bootcamp). This quarter's lessons are designed to prepare the Orgs to that Practice. The Practice is offered to those Certified Website Development Associates who successfully pass CNM Event Organizing Exam at the end of Bootcamp's second quarter. Successful completion of the event organizing practice qualifies the Residents as Certified Event Organizing Associates.

Occupations

  • Document Management Specialists
  • Public Relations Specialists
  • Meeting, Convention, and Event Planners

Events

For the purposes of this very wikipage, events refer to website projects, which are website development endeavors that are undertaken to create new products or new features of existing products. Projects are temporary endeavors; they close when CNMCyber Team receive all of the required deliverables and Careerprise contractors are compensated according to the contract.

Recitals

Schedules

There is no specific working time for this job, so you should be able to establish your own schedule.

Customers

A project customer aka a meeting participant is you and people like you. You have questions, would like to brainstorm ideas -- help yourself while organizing your Event.

Chain of command

  1. No chain of command exists; the Host is supposed to be his or her own boss. If you need someone to tell you what you are expected to do, you lost your qualifications for this job at some point of your life. Some lose this ability in their childhood, some at schools, some at work, some in marriages. Nevertheless, some still keep and some can restore.
  2. The CNMCyber event wikipage expresses what needs to emerge as a result of your work. Some requirements to how your work can flow is expressed on this wikipage.
  3. Most likely, you will fail the Host role if you are an "A" student, professional test-taker, and/or feel like your assignments are well-structured, well-developed, and the right answers are hidden somewhere similarly to how quiz answers are usually hidden in the lecture notes and/or textbook. You are encouraged to take risks in order to dream, define, design, and develop.
  4. To succeed, think yourself as an entrepreneur. Imagine that you are Steve Jobs, Jeff Bezos, Bill Gates, or Elon Musk creating a series of the Events and, further, WorldOpp incubator and WorldOpp. Many people can suggest you anything good or bad, but no one can serve as your boss.

Responsibilities

Typically, the Host physically and/or remotely:
  • Organizes one or two Events a week;
  • Facilitates the organized Events while speaking English unless another language is chosen as media of communication.
Attracting participants of the Event is not a part of the Host role. Usually, CNMC Event Administrator is responsible for that task.

Directions

To perform effectively, the Host is encouraged to follow the DREPD cycles, particularly:
  1. Discover requirements and available resources -- one can call it "researching this very knowledge base, including this very wikipage and CNM Cyber roundtable, and, if anything is unclear, asking questions about what should be done and whether requirements to how it should be done are available";
  2. Research the collected requirements in order to prioritize and prepare assumptions for the those parts that are not covered by the requirements;
  3. Envision the meeting including all of its possible details; and, finally;
  4. Plan the design while facilitating the designed meeting.

Instructions

No final instructions exist. To perform efficiently, the Host can utilize the following blueprints:
  1. First of all, if you work through job bidding sites, turn on the time tracker. When hired, you are welcome to bill Gary aka Igor for every activity related to the job. Besides the activities listed below, this may include discussing, going through CNM Wiki, and/or researching the World Wide Web on whatever in this job you choose to undertake;
  2. To discover, research, and envision,
    • Study what the Community has to offer and ask since everything can never be clear;
    • Imagine what the Community should have for the Events and ask whether your vision fits the reality;
    • Identify what is missing and ask for additional requirements;
    • Suggest solutions and get them approved or commented on in order to improve;
  3. To execute,
    • Setup some test webconference in order to learn Jitsi;
    • If you are organizing an onsite Event and if you haven't done yet, join the Group and notify Gary aka "Igor", so he would be able to promote you to a meetup event organizer;
    • If you are organizing an online Event that is open to the general public and if you haven't done yet, like the FB Page and notify Gary aka "Igor", so he would be able to promote you to an assistant manager;
    • Pick the date and timing of your Event;
    • Using the Group's calendar, check whether the date and timing of an Event to be organized doesn't conflict with other Events;
    • If it is your first Event (aka meetup), suggest it to the Group. In order to do so,
      1. If you haven't done so, create your CNM Wiki account at opplet.net/user/register. Please note that the information technology that Friends Of CNM utilizes is under constant development. Particularly, its mail server called hasn't setup yet, so you need to neither enter the email address nor expect any confirmation sent. After you filled in the form besides the email field and click "Sign up," you should be able to log in into CNM Wiki;
      2. While being logged in,
        • Go to the CNMCyber event or other wikipages depending on the purpose of your Event;
        • Find the Archive section;
        • Click on "Edit,"
        • Add a link to your future Event in the :*[[CNM Cyber event on Month Date of 2018]] format. Please, place your Event chronologically among other Events and don't delete the existing text; and
        • Save your edits;
      3. Click on the link you created and add:
        • Event title (keep it short, clear, and descriptive);
        • Physical location if applicable;
        • Description that shall include the specific agenda and statement whether the Event is going to be recorded;
        • The way how remote participants can join the Event;
    • Save your edits and wait for either announcement at the Group or feedback of Gary aka "Igor" on what needs to improve. When announced, the Event will be added to the calendar automatically;
    • When the suggested Event is announced, facilitate the Event;
  4. To follow-up, reach out to the Event participants while summarizing the Event, thanking the participants, and posting the link to its wikipage.
This position is so new that other instructions (as well as directions), but stated on this very wikipage, haven't existed yet. Vice versa, their development can be a part of your job if you choose so. That means that your proposals to change anything above is especially welcome and most valued. The project financier, Gary aka "Igor" pays for the results, which shall be organized meetings, developed guidelines, etc., rather than for "skills," "talents," and time.

Hiring

Everyone is welcome to apply.

Announcement

An initiative group is currently looking for a "Meeting Organizer" to join our future team. This is an entry level position with opportunity for growth. The candidate is expected to organize one or more weekly meetings to discuss challenges, especially in recruitment, that the Community faces.
Job Description:
Primarily, organize one or more CNM Cyber roundtables. In addition:
  1. Research and recommend new sources for active and passive candidate recruiting;
  2. Network and maintain relationships with key talent communities for short and long-term opportunities;
  3. Develop a sustainable talent acquisition and hiring strategy to meet growth needs of the Community;
  4. Find bottlenecks in the recruiting process and provide suggestions for improving the candidate experience;
  5. Develop a broad professional network of top talent;
  6. Stay current on market trends and competitors within our industry.
Requirements:
  1. Must be able to read, write, speak, understand and comprehend some level of English;
  2. High School Diploma or equivalent is not required; Bachelor's Degree or graduate degree may be an obstacle;
  3. Excellent communication skills and/or ability to acquire those skills are required;
  4. Must be able to work or learn to work as part of a team;
  5. Strong problem-solving and analytical skills and/or ability to acquire those skills are required.

What to expect

  1. If you succeed to state what valuable you would do for this project, you will get a job offer for 5 hours weekly. In this particular project, the job offer is more like a beginning rather than the destination point. Your skills would be assessed based on your performance, not "interviewing".
  2. If you succeed not to state anything concrete (let say, you say some nonsense similar to "I will deliver on this project by scheduling meetings and ensuring they are successful and their outcome can be felt immediately"), you can be offered to organize one meeting just to see that you are able to do something valuable knowing that you are not able to write.
  3. When you start working, you can expect detailed feedback. Questions, creative solutions, and taking risks are especially welcome. Under any circumstance, you will not be punished for taking a risk if your endeavor is undertaken within the scope of the project. Your charges will be disputed if you try to charge the financier for your personal stuff such as working on other projects, chatting to your friends on Facebook, etc.
  4. If you succeed to organize at least one meeting within a week, your contract will be extended. A bad meeting is better than no meeting at all -- no one is perfect, so is your performance expected to be.
  5. If you succeed to organize no meeting within a week, the contract will be paused, you will be asked why and, if no clear output is achieved, the your contract will be ended. This doesn't mean that we cannot work on other projects.
Please note that Gary aka "Igor" is widely available for soliciting additional requirements from him. All currently available requirements are posted at CNM Cyber roundtable -- please visit the link. It is under constant development, but it reflects the current state of development.

On August 2nd, 2018, michael succeeded to organize the first meeting. On August 4th, Gary aka "Igor" sent the following message to every of four contractors working on the role:

Today marks three weeks that we have been collaborating on the project. Since we have already had the first meeting, it is successful. In a week, I will be evaluating your contributions to its success. If you don't organize any meeting and/or contributed to the wikipages, I will end our contract, while marking your work as success, giving all-star rating, and positive feedback. Meeting my expectations is not a challenge. You have met those and I appreciate your service. However, we need to keep going forward. I would like to see that you are able to move this project to the next level, which are development/brainstorming meetings every day and fully staffed https://wiki.ksacerts.com/en/WorldOpp_incubator.
