Are you consulting with the ECEI space for the update?

consideration

Subject: CI Connect briefing for the pilot for Partners [SEC=OFFICIAL]
Hi
!
s22(1)(a)(i
I put together a more detailed overview of the pilot and would like to run through it with the Partners when we
have the final list available.
I thought you might like to see the information and provide input on changes or make recommendations to improve
it
So far the package is pretty broad, so potentially we could run through it with all the leaders and teams contributing
to the pilot, but we might also refine it to be for leaders only. I anticipate we could cover all of the material in about
1 hour, with maybe 15-20 minutes for Q&A.
Please see the attached PowerPoint and feel free to reach out with any questions or feedback!
Kind Regards,
