Update on JEDI Consultant – Selection of FMRA

At the March 2020 General meeting, a motion was approved that “The LFA will hire a consultant to undertake an internal JEDI review. This work will be inclusive of the LFA membership”. Following the election of the current Board, initiatives were undertaken to issue an RFP and form a selection committee to review submissions for recommendations.

The selection committee is pleased to announce that FMRA has been selected as the successful consultant. FMRA will employ Design Thinking, a methodology that prioritizes empathy and iteration throughout the project. Key aspects of their proposal include in-depth interviews with members and analysis of existing union governance documents. The project is slated to begin in mid-February and be completed with a final report with recommendations by July 2022. 

Stay tuned for an invitation to meet FMRA to kick off the event (date TBA). Please join us at that time for more information and discussions.

Members of the JEDI Selection Committee: Pauline Greaves-Aylward, Natalie Knight, Colin Mills, Lauren Vedal, Joy Walcott-Francis and Joyce Wong
