Week 13: Work Log- Nie

This report is regarding the work that I have done in the week from 11/28 to 12/02 and what I am working on for the next week in SLU tailgating organization.

In the past week I have already done the all the major task in our group. So I begin to develop my individual documentation project. Also, our group has done all the major tasks. We had a group meeting during the class. We summarized all the things we have done from the day one of the project. We discussed the details on organization postmortem. We could not finish it in the class. So we made a group appointment on next Tuesday to do the postmortem and prepare the formal group presentation.

The work I need to do in the upcoming week is to read the sample final documentation project and the sample individual documentation project. Start to summarize what I did in the group and provide it to the group for editing the final documentation project.

Week 13: SLU Tailgate Team Work Log

During week 13 of the SLU Tailgating Organization, the group, as a whole, prepared to get everything ready for the final presentation.  This included individual work from each team member.

 

Michael began to start a rough draft of the powerpoint and an outline of the packet.  These will serve as a starting point for the group to work together for the completion of the project.  Nie and Barret made sure everything was correct in their pitch letters and worked on creating an presentable way to show that the businesses were commited. This is help show that we have done work to SLU and that we are prepared in our presentation.  Alex, also, worked on creating a way to present our involvement with the humane society.  Brian made the finishing touches to his flyers and made sure everything looked exactly the way he wanted.  This will help show that we are an established organization that has a purpose.

 

For next week, the group will be working together to finish the presentation and packet for SLU.  We will also be finshing our Postmortem document and preparing our presentation to the class.

 

Week 13: Individual Work Log – Kubik

During the previous week of the SLU Tailgating Organization, I had a realitively slow week.  I did not have any major tasks that were pressing for me to complete.  Therefore, I took the time to begin a rough draft of our presentation to SLU.

 

This task started with me putting down a base powerpoint that we are going to use.  This will become very useful to our team moving forward because it gives us a base reference point for developing the presentation the way we all agree will work best.  The next thing I did was develop an outline for what our packet will look like.  This will help us more easily gather the documents that we need to implement into our packet and will eventually be able to serve as a start to the table of contents to the packet.

 

For next week, I will be finishing the final draft of the powerpoint and putting together the packet as a whole, I will also help work with the team to finish the Postmortem document.

 

 

Week 13: Work Log – BHoffstetter

The report below lists the work that I have completed and work ongoing for SLU tailgate in the weeks of 11/18 to 12/2.

This week and over the break my goal was start gathering documents and writing the individual documentation paper. This section is going to encompass all of my work for SLU Tailgate over the semester. With the completion of my last pitch letter I have completed all my tasks that I was assigned.  In the upcoming week SLU Tailgate is going to have a team meeting in which we will put together the final group project which is the project post mortem.  In addition to the report, the team will have to discuss the oral report about the organization and its status that is on Wednesday.  Most of my time left in the semester will be spent on the individual documentation project as that is the largest of the remaining assignments.

Week 13: Work Log- Johnston

This is my work log for the week of November 26th- November 2nd.  During this week I helped decide what type of presentation we are doing for the postmortem.  I did this by discussing what sort of attire the team should wear for the presentation, which was business casual.  This was chosen because we are a student organization and not a corporation so business casual, everyone agreed, was selected.  I, order to help with the packet that we are presenting to SLU I had to describe my involvement in selecting a charity and the advantages SLU will have by working with this charity and the relationship they can build.

There is also a powerpoint for the meeting with SLU which we began to discuss ideas and implement the bare materials needed to know that the packet will give greater detail to.  The second powerpoint that we discussed and are planning for next week is the one for the postmortem.  This one will be more informative but at the same time very similar in structure.  With the course winding down and much of our goals completed the individual communication report is primarily the main focus after next week.

Week 12: Work Log- Nie

This report is regarding the work that I have done in the week from 11/14 to 11/18and what I am working on for the next week in SLU tailgating organization.

What I have done in this week is the proofreading of the pitch letter for Pappy’s and also added some details on it. All the details are corresponding with what Pappy’s can provide us on tailgate. So with the detail we can plan the setup of tailgate better. I have also did research online about other tailgate events since we are the first tailgate organization in SLU which means we don’t have any  previous experience to refer. I have never been to any tailgate party so the researches really give me a sense about how it likes.

The work I need to do in the upcoming week is to continuous to work on the layout of tailgating event. The whole team is going to work on this together.

Week 12: Work Log – Bhoffstetter

The report below lists the work that I have completed and work ongoing for SLU tailgate in the week of 11/11 to 11/18.

This week my goal was to finish the jimmy johns pitch letter.  I have completed the letter and am in the process of proof reading it.  Now that all the pitch letters have been completed, I am going to start working on the layout of the tailgate.  My hope is to have this in draft form by next class in order for the group to add their input.  The layout is going to need to be researched to find the correct items for the tailgate.  Additionally, i will have to discuss with my group what things we will have to have to make the tailgate successful.

Week 12: Individual Work Log – Kubik

For the 12 week of the SLU Organization Tailgate project, I concentrated on beginning to draft our final proposal to SLU.  I have begun to organization our documents and information each team member has gathered over the duration of our project and organizing the information in a way that will be beneficial to cerate our final draft.  I have taken all the proposals that we created for the local businesses and draw out some of the points that I believe are most important for us to concentrate on.  This will help us by allowing the group to see what I value as important information and will allow the group to have a starting point to rework the presentation to create one that we all agree coincides with what we, as a team, believe the presentation should look like.

 

My other main task for the week was beginning to make the corrections to our midterm report.  The report in and of itself was complete, but it lacked depth on some of the main points.  Therefore, I have begun to delve deeper into these points and more descriptively outline them in our document.

 

For next week, I will complete the necessary changes in our midterm report, which will allow our team to better our grade and have a greater understanding of what needs to be completed before the end of the semester.

Week 12: SLU Tailgate Team Work Log

During the 12^th week of the SLU Organization Tailgating project, the team worked on further our communication with our local businesses and charities.

 

Barret and Nie kept up with their correspondences with Humphrey’s, Jimmy Johns, and Pappy’s.  They have been working to get exact details of what each business can provide for us so that we can effectively plan the tailgate.  This will help us gain a better knowledge of the mapping of the tailgate itself and allow us to finalize any other necessary items we may need to obtain.  Alex continued his contact with the Humane Society.  He worked with them to ensure that we could obtain a representative from the Humane Society, as well as, he is attempting to see if there is a possibility to get animals at the event.  This is help us greatly by appealing to people emotions and hopefully make them donate more money.  Brian worked on more flyers for the group to post around SLU’s campus.  These flyers are going to help get the word out about the tailgate and hopefully help us get a better turn out at the event.

 

The team worked extremely hard this week and everyone has been putting forth good effort to complete the project on time.  For next time, the team will continue to follow the task schedule and will revise the midterm report.

Work Log: Week 12- Johnston

From the week of 11/12 through 11/18 was primarily speaking with Mrs. Carol, my humane society representative that I have been in contact with.  We exchanged how the normal process of working with the humane society at an event works.  They will have at least one representative come to the event with a possibility of bringing a few animals and handouts that support the humane society.  Our goal was to have the proceeds of the concessions go to the humane society which they are very grateful for and want to help us in creating a fun exciting atmosphere that people are going to have a good time with.

Also with the midterm report we got back there are many placed that we can edit.  I looked over the sheet and will go into our google document we made about the midterm report and help make it better before the due date which is coming up next wednesday.
