VISION 2012

The Steering Group

The purpose of the steering group is to co-ordinate the work of the project teams and to deal with any questions the project teams may have.

The membership of the steering group is: President, Finance Officer, Education Officer, Women's Officer, Welfare Officer, International Students' Officer, Activities Officer, Sports Officer, General Manager, Director of Membership Involvement, Director of Resources, Director of Services and the Head of Marketing & Communications.

Project Teams

A series of cross organisational project teams (made up of staff and Officers) was established based on the 8 goals of Vision 2012:

  • Growing Democracy (fits in with the Student Officer team objectives)
  • Open to Change (about cultural change)
  • A Great Place to Work (about staffing issues)
  • Improving Representation
  • More than a building/endless possibilities/positive impact (reaching out via the physical and technical)
  • Landmark New Building

The remit of the project teams was to highlight the issues/context and generate ideas that will take Sheffield Students' Union towards achieving Vision 2012. As guardians of their goal, each project team delivered a 3 year action plan for approval by the steering group.
