We are the biggest supporters of taking a strategic approach to DAO governance and this proposal is a step in that direction. The proposed adoption of an OKR framework aligns with proven governance practices in other ecosystems (ex., SafeDAO’s OBRA). Based on our experience stewarding such strategic frameworks, we know it can be highly beneficial in streamlining focus for a DAO. Most importantly, it helps with efficient allocation of capital.
One thing to note - while we appreciate the flexibility of allowing contributors to submit proposals outside the SOS framework, creating friction against such proposals might discourage potentially impactful ideas. To ensure that contributors are not disincentivized from pursuing valuable standalone initiatives, a potential solution might be to leave open a “wildcard” category that accepts otherwise impactful proposals that do not fit into any of the approved objectives.
Feel free to reach out to us for sparring as we’ve been involved closely in rolling out the strategy framework at Safe and have seen all the learnings on the ground.
H/T to @EntropyAadvisors for the work on the proposal.
