It is recognized that it will take time and will be ongoing in nature. A progress check-in is intended to take place at the end of the fiscal year (March 31st), whereby units will have identified their success and opportunity to address, and have ideally begun some work towards sustaining the success and addressing the opportunity.<\/pre>\n<p>Please share your ideas, feedback, questions, and concerns with your manager, a member of the MAC, or ES HR (<a href=\"mailto:ashley.elchuk@ubc.ca\">Ashley Elchuk<\/a> or <a href=\"mailto:annie.yim@ubc.ca\">Annie Yim<\/a>).
