PRIORITY FOUR: MAKE ALL OUR WORK ACCOUNTABLE, TRANSPARENT, FAIR AND INCLUSIVE.<br />

Year-In-Review Preparation<br />

The <strong>Area</strong> Director has proactively taken steps to prepare for the 2012<br />

management review. On six occasions during the year, the <strong>Area</strong> Director<br />

and Division Leadership met to discuss and develop an action plan on the<br />

IHS Internal Management Review Tool. A 42-page management review<br />

tracking tool has been developed. This tool is designed to prepare for the<br />

<strong>Area</strong>’s external review in July 2012. All divisions have participated in this<br />

project, with the goal to identify perceived weaknesses or deficiencies<br />

and address them through corrective action plans. In addition, service<br />

unit and divisional dashboards have been created to provide enhanced<br />

accountability of all divisions and service units in the <strong>Area</strong>. These<br />

dashboards are designed to show monthly progress toward meeting<br />

objectives and also proactively demonstrate accountability in anticipation<br />

of future management review guidelines.<br />
