Stake Executive

StakeExecutive is software dedicated to the strenuous needs of a Stake Executive Secretary.  StakeExecutive uses Microsoft Office (especially MS Access).  The software is free of charge, but I would like to know who is using it.  Send me an email (see the bottom of this page).  Stake Executive Secretaries usually have the responsibility of tracking every issue (large and small) that is the responsibility of his Stake President (sometimes a Stake Clerk is involved too).  The details can be mind-boggling.  A good tracking and integrated workflow system is what's needed!  StakeExecutive does the following good works, and has been used in the field for years:

bullet

Document Indexer - How many times have you needed to remember where read about something the Stake President is trying to find.  Every document that is handed to you is indexed and filed.

bullet

Agenda Builder - How many agenda items are you supposed to keep track of?  10?  20?  100?  What about the High Council?

bullet

Callings - Do you have a good system for tracking calling nominations?  How about integrating those with the agenda so the President can see at a glance who's got the ball. 

bullet

Melchizedek Priesthood Advancement - This is similar to the problem of callings, and should be integrated into one system.

bullet

Missionary Tracking - Where in the pipeline is each missionary?  How many interviews are left?  Where is the missionary serving?  When will he or she come home?  Who is coming home in the next 3 weeks?

bullet

Assignment Tracking - High Councilors have assignments.  Stake Presidency members have assignments.  Who's got what?  What issues on the agendas relate to each assignment?

bullet

Calendar - The stake calendar is one of the most complex scheduling problems on earth, and all of it seems to converge on the Stake President in one way or another.  StakeExecutive keeps relevant dates in front of the right people.

bullet

Inventory Control - Who's got what key?  Who's got what manual?  What is the job description of each calling?

bullet

Progress Report Tracking - Each calling may or may not require a progress report for the Stake President.  If so, who turned in a progress report this month?  Who didn't turn in the report?  Shouldn't the status of such reports be on the Stake Presidency's agenda?

bullet

Membership Audit - If you have Microsoft MapPoint you can produce a very interesting membership audit with StakeExecutive.  Incomplete and inaccurate addresses are trapped instantly, members in the wrong ward are highlighted, and ward splitting was never easier.
