Hi all,
As promised in the last announcement, the WIIM-LC would like to share the updated purpose, vision, and mission for WIIM as well as a small set of goals for 2019.
- Purpose: To inspire, connect, and advance women in information management.
- Vision: A robust, diverse, and inclusive information management field where all members have equal opportunity to thrive, contribute, and succeed.
- Mission: To engage and empower women in information management through advocacy, leadership, mentoring, and professional development.
We formed WIIM with a purpose and a vision for the future. Our mission is our plan on how to realize the vision.
The current WIIM-LC has decided on a small set of goals for its inaugural year to provide impact and promote success for WIIM as an organization. These goals include:
1. WIIM webinars will continue with bi-monthly delivery. WIIM members including the WIIM-LC will provide input for topics.
2. WIIM-LC will conduct a membership survey to better determine the needs and wants of the membership which will drive future events and programming.
3. WIIM-LC will develop a series of WIIM-sponsored events to be conducted at the AIIM 2019 conference.
