[cid:image002.png@01D9D052.29537010] Dear ELI Cohort 4,
We know you have all had a very busy summer, so we hope that you are excited and re-energized about getting together for the upcoming ELI Module 1 sessions. We have had the pleasure of speaking with many of you one-on-one and are delighted with the talent and executive leadership potential within our cohort. Our System's future will be in good hands. We were also encouraged to hear about the work that is already underway with your executive coaches, 360s, and learning league meetings.
Module 1 will take place at the Paul J. Rizzo Conference Centerhttps://www.kenan-flagler.unc.edu/executive-development/about-us/about-the-rizzo-center/ in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, located approximately three miles from the main UNC campus (150 DuBose Home Lane, Chapel Hill, NC 27517). All resources have been uploaded to our Sharepoint site.https://uncsystem.sharepoint.com/sites/UNCExecutiveLeadershipInstituteCohort4

Pre-Work There are several pieces of pre-work to complete prior to your arrival. Please find your program prep guide attached to this email. Please note - for ease of use, please click the blue text/links to jump to the referenced articles.
1. I-OPTS Survey I OPT(r) is the name of an assessment tool that measures information processing preferences. This matters because information processing elections are entirely symbolic (i.e., contains no bio-chemical elements inherent in the "feelings" used by alternative methods). Timeline and Next Steps Time Sensitive - Complete I-OPT by September 5 I-OPT SURVEY INSTRUCTIONS This note describes the process for you to complete the "I Opt" survey. Please complete this by September 5. Aim: Identifying your personal information, decision, and communication preferences. Process/tool: "I Opt" (stands for INPUT-OUTPUT PROCESSING TEMPLATE) is an information, decision, and communication preference tool for individuals and teams. Action required: In preparation, I would like to ask you to complete the "I Opt" survey located at: https://ioptorders.com/surveys/?cid=216&team=ELI (Links to an external site.)
It is comprised of 24 multiple choice statements and will take roughly 15 minutes to complete. Instructions * First, click the link above. * Complete the information at the top of document. (First Name, Last name, Email, Company: UNC) * For each set of statements, select the one that best describes you. * There are no right or wrong choices, just preferences. * Avoid choosing options on how you should or could be. * We are looking for general preferences. This is not a "work style" survey. * Try not to spend more than 15 minutes completing the survey. * You must choose one option for each set of statements. * Please remember to complete the information at the top of the survey. * When you are done, click "submit survey". Common Questions/Issues I am trying to complete the survey, but it tells me there is an error. Scroll from the very top of the page to the bottom looking for missing information highlighted in red. Complete the missing portions and submit the form again.
I have completed the survey; no information is missing but it will not submit. What do I do? There is more than likely a form submittal block is installed on your web browser or a default block set by your IT department. You can try completing the survey on another device such as a mobile or a computer off your company network. Internet Explorer often has these blocks, instead use Chrome if available. If neither solution works, please request an emailed version of the survey from your "I Opt" facilitator.
Do I have to include my full email address? No! Feel free to leave off the company identifier in your email address. For example, First. Last@ (no company name). The email address is used as a secondary quality control mechanism. You will not be contacted, and your email address will not be shared.
Who can see my survey results? There are no results stored on the site at any time. It is only a place holder for the survey information. "I-Opt" retrieves the forms and processes the results separately from the site. The results are only shared by "I-Opt" with the person who is supporting you with the survey process and facilitation of the results.
