2007-2008 GOALS AND OBJECTIVES
Committee Strategic Plan Yes No
Goal # 1: Develop session topics that involve international or bi-lateral issues for the 2008 Annual Conference in Austin
Measure of Success: At least 6 of the approved ITC sessions for Austin will have content that has application for Canadian and other members.
There are two standing sessions, the “Federal Agency Update” and “AASHTO Update”, and even those probably have some relevance for right of way professionals from Canada, South Africa, Australia Japan, Korea and others. These sessions may be partnered with other committees.
![Page 20: I nternational Transportation Committee](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062814/56816848550346895dde306c/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

participation with all committee members and our "Community of Practice“.
Measure of Success:

This annual event was attended by over 300 ROW professionals in 2006– most of whom are not currently IRWA members. We plan to participate again in 2007 and beyond. This is an excellent outreach opportunity and we suggest that IRWA develop a strategy for having a presence at similar Annual ROW Workshops across the country.

What’s working well……………1. Keeping a broad Transportation
focus Our current membership is diverse:
10 government employees 11 ROW consultant employees 2 retiree’s
1 member is from Canada Seven of our Austin sessions have
cross-functional or multi-modal implications
We have industry reps in aviation, highways, transit – Federal, State & Local
![Page 29: I nternational Transportation Committee](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062814/56816848550346895dde306c/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
29
What’s working…. but can improve1. Sub-Committee Structure More interaction and involvement by
members of the sub-committees More equitable distribution of
assignments More effective results - because the
Sub-Committee members take ownership in their areas of responsibility
![Page 30: I nternational Transportation Committee](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062814/56816848550346895dde306c/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
30
What’s working…… but can improve2. Our Personal Project Initiative On the positive side……. The Personal Projects can contribute
significantly to the ITC’s goals and mission, and to the Association as a whole.
They give each ITC member an opportunity to contribute, and also gives them a chance to pick the project.We have some very worthwhile projects underway.
![Page 31: I nternational Transportation Committee](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062814/56816848550346895dde306c/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
31
What’s working…… but can improve2. Our Personal Project Initiative On the other hand…… Some ITC members either have not
committed to do a project . . . Or have proposed a project – but
not followed through on their commitment.
We need follow through by our members
![Page 32: I nternational Transportation Committee](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062814/56816848550346895dde306c/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
32
What needs improvement……………We need to work on improving our 2-way communications, developing more active participation and getting effective feedback on our performance.This applies within the ITC…between the ITC and other Committees…between the Committees and the Regions...between the Committees and the IEC
![Page 33: I nternational Transportation Committee](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062814/56816848550346895dde306c/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
33
What’s working…… but must improve1. Our Outreach Initiatives Our Chapter Chairs E-mail Group was
just starting to take off – response was good! However this effort needs work with communication sub-committee
Difficult to measure the value of our presence at national and regional ROW eventsOur communication subcommittee must take the lead working with Chair & Vice Chair for effective implementation.
