Communities of practice, towards a more decentralized organization

The new ambition of the CoPs is to increase opportunities for the CoP experts, through the launch of different collaborative projects. However, to make this transition possible we also need to reorganize our facilitation structure. In this blog, we present you the model towards which we are heading. If you have been with us for some time already in our CoP, there might very well be a new role for you!

The limits of the current model

In a recent blog, Bruno reviewed the five years of existence of the CoP Performance Based Financing (CoP PBF). He mentioned among other things how he has become sort of a bottle neck himself  as a key instigator and focal point of PBF CoP activities. In recent years, we have tested models with better equipped facilitation teams.   The Financial Access to Health Services CoP (CoP FAHS) went furthest in implementing this model. In the end, however, this approach did not lead to the expansion we expected to get.

In Rabat, we discussed this model of organization. For the PBF, FAHS and Health Services Delivery CoPs, the diagnosis was clear: so many of our beautiful projects have been put on hold due to our non-availability. We see the future in the model that was launched last year during the « Results Based Financing & Information Communication and Technology » workshop that was led by an autonomous central facilitation team.

The new model

To get rid of the bottle neck of facilitators, our new strategy will involve an organigram of facilitation that allows delegation of more responsibilities (the word « organigram » is not very appropriate as CoPs are not conventional organizations with a hierarchy and employees, but we could not find a better word for the time being). We are going to move away from our flat “rake” organigram towards a more decentralized organigram (see figure 1).

In practice, from now on, each activity of the CoP will be  conceived as a collaborative project. This project will be assigned to a “project manager”  (by the way, we find the term « project manager » not very original, and we will reward anybody among you who comes up with a better one with a PBF T-shirt – just offer your suggestions as comments to this blog). The main responsibility of the “project manager” will be to see the project through, from start to finish. These new project manager posts will be new opportunities for our more experienced and motivated experts. They can show their passion for knowledge management and their will to help the more junior experts to grow (in terms of knowledge, competences, …).

The selection of « project managers » will take into account the nature of the projects. In fact, as you’ll gradually discover as the collaborative projects will be shared online in the coming weeks and months, these projects will be of a different nature. Some will be relatively short, others will last for quite some time. Some will be small projects, others will be much heavier. Some projects will require both English and French, others not. Also, some will be more technical, others less. The title of “Project manager”  will thus be confined in terms of content and time. You should note that the expert who will have accepted this responsibility will have in advance agreed to precise terms of reference. He or she will also undergo an evaluation of his/her own performance (by his/her colleagues experts involved in the project).

Implementation

This model will be gradually implemented. The speed will depend, among other things, on the volume of collaborative projects that we will be able to launch. Obviously, it is possible that all will not work  smoothly from the beginning, but the most important is to start embracing this transition and take a decisive move forward, towards this new CoP development. We count on your support to succeed in this new model of facilitating CoPS.

Thank you,these are important steps towards our new and innovative CoP! What about calling the new project managers "project monitors", "points of references" or "knowlegde hubs"?!

Thanks Lisa-Marie, we have opted for the proposition done by Diouf from Senegal: "team leader" - one of its strengths is that it is understandable both in French and English. Thanks for participating. 2015 is a transition year for the CoPs - there will be more and more opportunities for the experts.

Hello, my name is Rachel Frye and I want to give this testimony in respect of Dr. Odunga who made me win $2 Million Dollars in Lottery by matching the 5 numbers for me. I am happy to be out of financial debt and be able to help my family in these seasonal period of fun and cheer. I contacted Dr. Odunga through Whats-App (+2348167159012) when I told him to help me win the Mega Millions and He told me that it would be spiritually checked if I will win the Lottery. When he informed me that I will not be able to win the Jackpot but I will win huge amount in the lottery I was not completely sad but had great faith in him. I live in Freeland, Saginaw County, Michigan and I would say it was pretty hard to send him the money for the spell before he gave me the winning numbers to play. He sent me the numbers and I played. The next morning after the drawing, I matched the five white balls in the Aug. 4 drawing to win $1 million: 11-30-45-52-56. Thanks to the Megaplier X2, my prize was multiplied to $2 million. Thank You Dr Odunga for this wonderful experience with you. You too can contact Dr. Odunga at his Whats-App +2348167159012 or Email: [email protected]
