Proposal Discussion: Create events committee for next term

1m2m3

as the size and ambitions of the dao's membership grow, so too does the complexity and thus the demands its event planning and production team

while events will continue to be supported by marketing, partnership, education and other committees, the dao needs a dedicated committee to properly focus and execute

i propose that we have 3 events co-chairs:
-large, mass-marketed (_quarterly)*
-local community engagement (_monthly)
-member meet-ups (_weekly)

*in meetings with the team, i've discussed participating as the large event co-chair for the coming term

Thanks for the proposal. Events are certainly an important part of ATX DAO. I agree we need more leadership helping with Events. I think this proposal needs a bit more detail.

Instead of creating more committees, one option might be to create vice president or vice-chair positions with specific roles and responsibilties. We don't want our committees to be too small (or too big). How many people are on the Partnerships committee currently?

For example, note that operations and Treasury currently have a joint weekly meeting. There are 3 people on the treasury committee and 1 person on the Operations committee so they are currently too small to meet separately and so are effectively one committee with three leaderhip positions.

josephf thanks for your response

i think the partnership committee is one person (ksicky) and likewise marketing and events (mason)

i suppose i would be happy to take a more unofficial role, though i feel like that one of the biggest issues facing most daos right now it lack of accountability. there is a level of professionalism needed to execute to top-notch production (which the leadership of the dao seems to want) and i'm simply trying to create a framework to make that more possible

i think this proposal makes sense and should go through. my only concern here is starting off with 3 co-chairs. not sure if that is necessary and leaning on folks who lead other committees would be sufficient - the events Ryan has been running seem like they could be considered membership tasks, for example. i am happy to help with events but it is important that you have executive decision-making authority as the committee head for the large scale events that are face of the organization.
