At the University of Michigan, we recently published our first university-wide IT strategy in over a decade. We used crowdsourcing methods to break free from the traditional "small committee" approach and had over 200 people contribute to the strategic plan document. In this session, we will describe the process and tools used, as well as the lessons learned during the journey.
OUTCOMES: Understand how crowdsourcing can be used to involve larger groups of contributors * Understand those processes that lend themselves to crowdsourcing and those that don't * Learn about the benefits and pitfalls of a crowdsourced approach
