This is drifting off the topic of magazine articles,
so I have changed the subject line.

Order on the phone list probably is the main thing that
determines in what order you get called. So it may be
sensible to organize the list in some functional order,
not by surname in alphabetical order.
Another issue to consider re in what order to contact
your team members, is location of the mission. It can
be useful to call first those team members who live
the farthest away from the mission location. Or, to
call first those who live closest, and leave the rest
for a "second wave" deployment.
