Is the timeline realistic? Ideally communications people should be brought in at the very beginning of a project or proposal, so they can add it to a calendar, if nothing else. Short turnaround times happen, but they make it more likely that the quality of the product will suffer, or that we will be unable to meet the need.
Are the right people at the table, are they communicated with consistently—particularly for work that focuses on Indigenous issues?
