Where is the vision clearly stated? Whose vision is it exactly? Where can I find clear short and long term goals leading to this vision?...
...
Is there a way to retrieve, read, compare (maybe even understand  ) relevant documents generated by ITTF boards like minutes, proposals, etc.?
Establishing e.g. an online-archive with those detailed information might lead to an more open and relaxed discussion.
I really highly appreciate that you are open to discuss here, but some kind of „Open ITTF“ would be my personal wish. |
You know, in modern business now people are tired of Mission Statements, Vision, Values, within a strategic plan, etc. Often these are just written down and far from reality. Instead in the ITTF we developed a sort of practical Priorities and goals in form of a philosophy as a point of reference. We call it P4 because we use four main headings that start with "P": Planning, Participation, Popularity and Profit Financing. You can find a summary on the website, under President's Forum, under P4. Or if you write to the ITTF e-mail:
ittf@ittf.com, I will make sure you receive a detailed PPT copy.
We try to be an open federation. All the propositions and the agenda and reports for the AGM and the Board of Directors are posted to our website. You can find the latest one under 2008 World Championships, and then click on the appropriate link to see all the documents. It is difficult to publish the discussions that take place at the meetings as these are all oral. But we do send the minutes of ALL ITTF meetings to the national associations and they are free to publish or distribute as they like. There are no secrets at all. Most of these minutes are also available on our website, under ITTF Museum, in the "Archive" section.
These need a bit of surfing to find because most people are not interested in these matters. We try to put the most popular sections up front and easy to find.
If you have any difficulty finding them, then just send me an e-mail (ittf@ittf.com) and I will guide you.
