determine their interest in and possible support for establishing an independent task force to review
the climate for innovation and change within the OCDSB;
B. That, subject to positive responses from the aforementioned potential task force partners, the
Board approve in principle the concept of an independent review of opportunities for innovation

corporate culture that promote, support, evaluate, recognize and reward creative and constructive
initiatives towards achieving the Board's mission at all levels within the organization;
C. That, subject to positive responses from the aforementioned potential task force partners, the
Board make information available, to the best of its ability within current constraints on time and
resources, to support the further development of a detailed plan by the originators of the concept

recommendation at the May 2002 Chairs' Committee meeting.
