INVESTMENT IN EXCELLENCE FAClLlTATOR PROGRAM RECOMMENDED ACTION: Adopt Resolution No. 91 - a 4 0 Authorize one Investment in Excellence staff facilitator to attend the Pacific Institute’s “Briefing for Facilitators” in Bellevue, Washington, August l-2, 1991. lTEM EXPLANATION: The City Council is being asked to approve out-of-state travel for one City Investment in Excellence Facilitator to attend the Pacific Institute’s Implementation Conference on “A Briefing for Facilitators”. The purpose of this request is to learn the successful practices and innovative approaches for improving our facilitation of the Investment in Excellence (I.I.E.) Program currently being offered to all City employees. In order to provide the most up to date techniques, methods and skills available to I.I.E. participants, we believe that it is extremely important to continually enhance our facilitator capabilities. The staff attendee will share the new knowledge and methods obtained with all of the City and Carlsbad Unified School District facilitators. Currently, the City has provided I.I.E. training to 150 employees and maintains a waiting list. The Carlsbad Unified School District has joined the City in the sessions, providing training for 35 school employees. This joint effort has added new dimensions to both agencies in understanding and appreciation of their individual and joint responsibilities. FISCAL IMPACT: Lodging, meals, and air fare will cost an estimated $1,050, depending on availability and timing of resenration. The tuition of $595 will have no impact due to a credit based on the City’s membership. Funds are available in the Human Resources Department training budget. EXHIBITS: 1.
