Yep, same here! Heard it was delayed, but nothing heard since.

Not heard anything since the original brief at the beginning of July.

But the sharepoiunt announcement came out last week telling us its coming on the 4th…

Wt fudge is going on.

Fudge is being served and a can kicking exercise is in progress.

Basically what’s happened (from what I’ve gathered) is the people making the changes, notified the air cadet management board of them with plenty notice. ACMB didn’t look at the changes till after the sharepoint announcement (clearly they didn’t like the changes) so have put their foot down and the changes are now delayed indefinitely until they make their mind up. I wouldn’t foresee any major changes until the new financial year in April…

It would be funny if it weren’t so predictable in it’s ineptitude.

At this point it seems more like a poorly written Greek tragedy

Or a well written comedy…

So I wasn’t aware there were changes until I found out here. This was then backed up by an official announcement that there would be changes, and they would tell us what they were on the 4th.

Now we don’t know what the changes were or if they’ll happen, and we don’t have any idea if they’ll still happen and I wouldn’t have known anything unless I read this forum.

Exactly the same scenario for me. I know I’ve complained about poor comms in this org several times before, but this example really does take the biscuit.

An update has just been added to Sharepoint.

TLDR, no updates until the end of the month, so carry on as you were before!

What a Comms cluster

The general synopsis being that they didn’t have consent to make the changes, so now they’re waiting until they actually have the necessary consent to do so.

Cluster. Absolute cluster.

How did nobody think to check for those inconsistencies before you know… putting an announcement out?

That’s pretty much how I see it as well!

The update seems to be written in corporate, ‘back’ covering, gibberish so thanks for translating!

What a mess of a policy implementation, yet again.
