Building The Team : Sourcing

Hello All,

One thing I have learned is that before having the first team meeting of the season it is good to have at least 30 days where you are just getting people committed to join the team and let them know of the kick-off day.

We got a team "approved" in June 10 and then set a kick-off day for July 10.
In the first couple days we has just 5-7 folks join the team, those were people that have been mentors in other places and were aware of FIRST Robotics, we than began advertising inside the organization, we set a goal of having 30 teamates, and we met that goal just in time for the team first meeting kick-off.


Sourcing is a long process, patience is needed to build a "groundswell" if you have some people working already on a project while trying to recruit other as the time goes can create "extra work" for the leaders trying to sync-up everyone.

Using the 4-stage of teams is helpfull.

Cheers,
Marcos.
