Rapid Response Committee Report   

By: Susan E. Oser, NFBPWC Rapid Response Committee Chair 

What Makes an Effective Rapid Response Team 

In an article written for The Management Center website I found some great information on what makes a good rapid response team. 

  1. Composition – Each member needs to have a broad view of the organization ranging from senior leaders to big decision makers.  If it’s small enough you can have email exchanges or meet for a quick meeting. 
  2. Decision-making – Since decisions are going to be important and need to be made quickly, all kinds of input need to be made to reach a decision.  However, if you are brainstorming for ideas, think and research all angles when possible.  Make sure you make an informed decision before the issue goes to the next chain of command or the next step. 
  3. Meeting frequency and agenda – You might need to meet and might not.  It all depends on the focus of your rapid response team and the direction it plans on going.  Oftentimes it just needs to be an issue that your organization wants to lend their voice to and it’s just a matter of writing out a simple statement that all members of the committee can agree on.
