Wow, its already 2022! I’d love to start a thread for us to coordinate our 2022 goals across the workstreams in the DAO.
If successful, I may put together an infographic that shows the DAO’s roadmap. And I think it would be really great if each workstream knew what each other one was targeting for 2022.
Sharing a first crack at grants objectives - full grants 2022 OKR & planning doc here.
I’d like to get community involvement in fleshing these out. Please comment on the doc if you have input, and DM me if you’d like to attend the 2022 Grants Planning session - to discuss OKRs & 2022 round dates - scheduled for Friday, Jan 14th @ 1:30pm MST.
The idea is that these goals would roll up into the PGF objectives (which we’re still working through), which would then roll up into Holdings/DAO-wide objectives @owocki outlined above.
Tentative/proposed H1 2022 grants goals
Scale: Grow grants program
Decentralization: Continue to decentralize grants
Scalability: Set ourselves up to execute Gitcoin Grants on a much larger scale
+100 on these, in terms of some of the other OKRs we’ll be formalizing, check out our objectives in the Q1 PGF budget
One key thing I want to note as others think about their OKRs: our highest order objective is to increase the GMV of Gitcoin Grants and related public goods funding mechanisms so that we can sustain the web3 ecosystem. There are many ways to accomplish this, but I’d encourage everyone to go through their objectives and ask “How does this help us more effectively build and fund public goods?”
In terms of specific OKRs for Q1
Grassroots Efforts
Help >500 new entrants to web3 understand why public goods are good via public goods PR
Greenpill >20 new contributors across the library via the public library
Grants Ops
Annika’s objectives above have been ratified and are good to go!
Public Goods Partnerships
Organize and execute on a framework for rank-ordering potential values-aligned partners
Help seed 3 additional public goods projects like 0xPARC or Verses via micro-grants
Find at least 3 values aligned partners to conduct token swaps with to push meta-governance in the space forward
FDD will be holding our Q1 strategy sessions between 1/12 - 1/17. I don’t want to post the goals before our collaborative decision making process. First, to not “lead the witness” in deciding our path. Second, to not create confusion if what I think of first were to change.
Sean from MMM here. We’re running a series of planning sessions right now. Current thinking is to have four key themes that are something like this with specific objectives and key results for each:
Build the growth machine
Build a leading web3 brand
Support DAO workstreams
MMM workstream health
We plan to gather feedback on a full draft by EOW and finalize them by end of next week!

Quick update: Added a key results in objective 1 on grants round 13 based on feedback from a few folks and to better align with organizational priorities!
We did a lot of retro and strategy planning in January (15 + hours) and chose 18 outcomes for the next 90 days with three success metrics for each. Each outcome falls under one of our “Top Level Goals” which are the metrics we want to use and improve round over round. Details on the 18 outcomes can be found on our FDD Weekly Update slides. Here are our top level OKRs to work on this year.

Gitcoin OKR: Decentralization
FDD Objective: Build a community driven anti-sybil pipeline
KR 1: Increase # of contributors to the open-source feature engineering pipeline during season x
KR 2: (Cost / Human Evaluation) goes down while maintaining inter-reviewer reliability
KR 3: Increase # of ecosystem data partners
Grants Investigation Agency - Credible Neutrality

Ground Control - Sustainability
Gitcoin OKR: Decentralization
FDD Objective: Be able to measure FDD health & success
Hey,
I am working on a visual/design for the roadmap. I’ve copied all the text from this thread in an attempt to simplify every single one of them but to be honest I do not know which ones are important. I need these short and concise in order to make it visually appealing.
