Onboarding and Offboarding: Fine-tuning your Workflow Between Festivals

The topic will be geared towards organizational leaders hoping to improve/fine tune their workflow between festival seasons. While this can apply to all departments, this panel will primarily speak towards festival operations with the following points of conversation:

 

  • Onboarding: How in-depth is your welcome packet? How can your organization best transfer institutional knowledge in a short time frame?
  • Offboarding: What info should you collect in an exit interview? What performance notes can be useful to seasonal workers as they move through the festival circuit?
  • Emergency procedures, communication flow, cultivating a cohesive work environment for seasonal and year-round workers

Speakers:

Debbie Marshall, Cleveland Film

Lani Simeona, The Cary Theater

Moderated by Ceci Leon, Film Festival Alliance and Atlanta Film Festival
