Lockdown

What makes us different

Beginner comp

Run by students

This is closer to a “real world” project. Not a school project.

Teams

There will be times there are not enough students for each role. Students will need to wear multiple “hats” in order to do Lockdown. People with multiple roles will need to know the scope of each role. This is to help with biased decisions when there is a conflict in roles.

Project Manager of Lockdown. Do not put someone here who does not have a good work ethic. This person has a holistic view of the competition from start (e.g. planning, role assignments, etc.) to finish (e.g. competition debrief, clean up, etc.).

Gold Team Leader's team consists of Gold Team, Red Team Leader, White Team Leader, and Black Team Leader. This is Lockdown's Leadership team. Each Team's Leader has defined roles and responsibilities; Gold Team needs to know them and know how the teams interact with one another. Gold Team Leader has final decision power for students (e.g. if other team leaders cannot come to a decision, the gold team leader should make the decision).

Gold Team Leaders who do not fulfill their role's responsibilities are noticed and cause ripples to the rest of Lockdown.

Leading indicator: How much are things planned out for each event, each sponsor, each team?

Lagging indicator: How much were you running around during the competition?

“Success doesn't just happen. It's planned for.”

“Proper planning and preparation prevents poor performance.”

“A goal without a plan is just a wish.”

This is the most important phase. Everything needs to be sorted out here.
