Catalyst GPS Trustee Guide puts you in the driver's seat: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1oVRto5fI7gKnhNlRrdfZ41fRwQXLCAHqiFaphweKONg/edit?usp=sharing
We introduced Catalyst GPS to the community and the majority feedback was overwhelmingly positive. Our current priorities are looking for people to become the strategic leaders Catalyst needs. We will be training them and providing them with guidelines and then handing over the framework to their use by the end of August 2022.
We are in the middle of testing the Catalyst GPS approach (and creating leaders on all levels as we do so). We have tried to align our approach with both IOG and that of the funding categories (George Lovegrove) to the best of our abilities. The first ATH is coming up and we hope to get 20 people to be further trained to use the Catalyst GPS methodology. It is a large undertaking with many opportunities for nasty scope creep but the small wins along the way are keeping us fully motivated.
Instead of organizing a "top-down" informative Crowdcast session we decided it's better to have a more interactive and collaborative Zoom session as an After Town Hall event. During townhall the two communities (ATALA Prism & KILT) decided to join forces and have a shared event. This ad hoc change of plans caused some confusion but in the end it was necessary to bridge the gap. We will share the learning points and achievements in the upcoming Project Close Report.
We are progressing according to the plan and the overall feedback from the community has been very positive.
We have started drumming up the collaboration in both KILT and Cardano communities.
KILT team took part in the challenge fest.
First actual session (Introduction) by Christine Mohan available at https://cardanocatalystwomen.com/
Second session (Training) invited 49 participants from both communities: https://www.crowdcast.io/e/exploring-cross-chain-collaboration/1
We are now moving into the innovation phase and the next session (Innovation) is scheduled for June 1.
After that we form teams for Fund9, gather the learning points, give a holler to other parachains in the Dotsama ecosystem and hold an After Townhall to discuss the next steps.
