Thursday 25th April 2024

Onboarding Workgroup

In this meeting we discussed:

  • Minutes of the last meeting

  • Action Items from the last meeting

  • Recap of Treasury session last week

  • Update on creation iof Onboarding Journeys

  • Context setting doc for Q2 budgets

  • Onboarding session on 16th May

  • Gorga’s proposal on educational content for the SNET ambassador program.

  • WG town hall updates to give on 30th April.

Decision Items:

  • Minutes of last meeting (11th April) agreed

    • [effect] affectsOnlyThisWorkgroup

  • We agreed that last week's Treasury info session was great and very useful; and that the edit of the video of gthe session should include the material on the token merger

    • [rationale] Because although it makes the video less "timeless", it is important information

    • [effect] mayAffectOtherPeople

  • We decided that our Onboarding session on 16th May will include a walk-through of the Discord server, which will be recorded in advance

    • [rationale] To ensure it doesn't acidentally breach anyone's privacy by showing something, on a video that will be shared on Youtube, that anyone might prefer not to be shared that way

    • [effect] mayAffectOtherPeople

  • Next steps for Onboarding Journeys - the scripts will be changed so they are a 3rd-person narrator; info will be added on barriers that may be faced by the female character because she is female

    • [rationale] 3rd person is better because if we use 1st person, it could give the misleading impression that these are real people rather than composites; and it would mean we need to recruit appropriate voices to voice them

    • [effect] affectsOnlyThisWorkgroup

  • We briefly discussed Gorga's proposal on creating educational materials, and agreed that perhaps it would be best as a collaboration between Oboarding, Translation, and Education guilds, probably in Q3

    • [rationale] Because it addresses mainly education and translation issues, and Onboarding can't fund it this Quarter

    • [effect] mayAffectOtherPeople

  • Gorga asked if he could be paid to be a mentor to new member Franklyn, but the group decided against it, but noted that Gorga, llike all of us, can still help Franklyn even without officially being his mentor

    • [rationale] because Gorga himself is quite new to the program, and doesn't yet have enough knowledge to mentor someone effectively.

    • [effect] affectsOnlyThisWorkgroup

  • There was a bit of tension in the meeting with people misunderstanding each other, especially about who was offering to do which tasks

    • [rationale] There is a certain amount of competition to be assigned paid tasks

    • [effect] affectsOnlyThisWorkgroup

Narrative:

The meeting began with Kenichi’s warm comment on the first “We Are Reading” article from Inés. Questions regarding the relief of workload arose. This is where the Scribe role comes in handy: Scribes can assist with the writing of budget proposals, and more! We want to spice up the Friday trivia sessions to make it more interesting and fun; Kenichi will incorporate other genres like music, sports, movies, and more. Kenichi shared information about the implementation of a poll to enable Trivia players to choose the next genre or area of focus - for example, if "movies" gets more votes in the poll - expect to see movie questions in the trivia - Awesome right? Our first podcast is set to commence next quarter. In this regard, we need:

  • Audio-visual specialist

  • Designers

  • Writers (available)

  • Analysis and promotion person

  • Documenter

  • Social media manager (available) Kenichi introduced the idea of “Soulbound Tokens.” They will serve as proof of participation; individuals can use them to see the Writers' Discord channel etc. Kareem shared an update on the brand assets. Kenichi introduced the latest WWG’s “Scribe” in the person of Cjfrankie.

Decision Items:

  • We plan to use Notion for better management of the podcast activities.

    • [effect] affectsOnlyThisWorkgroup

Action Items:

  • [action] Kenichi to submit the updated version of Q2’s budget [assignee] Kenichi [status] done
