Now that the Campus IT Plan is live, your help is needed to ensure Stanford IT professionals know about it and understand how it can help them learn about IT efforts across the university, connect with IT colleagues, collaborate and more.
To help you with this, we compiled some resources that you can use to communicate with your teams and colleagues. Our hope is that you would use these resources to send an organization-wide email about the plan's launch, present about it during team and all-hands meetings or talk about it wherever it seems appropriate to you.
Resources
- Talking points: A bulleted list of “talking points” geared towards IT professionals. These talking points can be used in emails, formal or informal presentations, intranet postings, social media posts, Slack messages and more. They are grouped into five themes in an easy, grab-and-go style.
- Sample presentation: Use these slides verbatim or modify them to your liking to communicate about the Campus IT Plan in team and organization-wide meetings. The presentation includes placeholder slides for you to highlight the work of your specific unit and how it connects to the overall Campus IT Plan.
- Sample email: Use this email verbatim or modify it to your liking to announce the launch of the Campus IT Plan broadly with your team and throughout your organization. The email template includes placeholders for you to enter information specific to your unit.
- Communications tracker: Use this spreadsheet to record your efforts in sharing the Campus IT Plan. This will help us track where, when and how the message is being communicated across campus.
