When: Wednesdays at 6pm CET, 12pm EST, UTC,
On our road to making the PoolTogether DAO more accessible and inclusive we are beginning to host weekly Onboarding Calls. Onboarding Calls create a space to engage with new community members, help them contribute and increase community retention.
Within the call we aim to answer all questions starting from what a DAO actually is, going over PoolTogether and its values, the community structure and all processes involved.
Following the Onboarding Call all participants are teamed up into a Swim Class. By doing this we place new community members into smaller cliques, with the intention to lower the social overload and create a safe space for beginners.
Every Swim Class is confronted with our Onboarding Quest “Swimming Lessons”. Swimming Lessons intend to break the ice between members of the Swim Class, guide them through their first steps and give reasons to collaborate and return to the PoolTogether Discord server.
All participants are invited to a recap event two weeks after the initial Onboarding Call. During this “Free Swimmers” Meetup we look at quest results, check back on participants, and have the possibility to collect feedback and adapt future Onboard Calls.
Part of the quest is to design your team’s personal POAP, which will be handed out to everyone during the Free Swimmers Meetup. This associates members on their journey within the DAO forever and helps prevent POAP farming.
This event and its logistics were heavily inspired by the Krause House onboarding & this document pioneered by rafa0.
Very excited to hear your feedback, thoughts and ideas!
