Personnel Plan
Global Solutions and Outreach Programs (GSOP)
GSOP Personnel Plan is based on the GSOP Problem Diagrams and associated Solution Work Units. Personnel for each work unit is shown along with the team structure. Personnel hiring priorities are indicated as follows:
Priority 1: hire within 3 months.
Priority 2: hire within 6 months.
Priority 3: hire within 12 months for full-time + ½ part-time personnel. Hire remainder of part-time personnel as needed.
To staff the GSOP at this rapid rate, Priority 1 hires will assist in selecting Priority 2 personnel. Likewise, Priority 2 full-time hires will assist to select the Priority 3 personnel.
The three types of personnel positions are abbreviated as follows:
Problem Facilitators are designated “PF.” These are full-time personnel.
Full-time personnel are designated “FT.” These include the Problem Facilitators.
Part-time (4 hr./week) are designated “PT.”
The numbers of full-time personnel that should be co-located are also indicated.
