WG Lead Term Limits

Based on the KPIs https://blog.joystream.org/sumer-kpis/#10.11

Pre-proposal Discussion https://testnet.joystream.org/#/forum/threads/372

For current Leads the soft term limit (starting from when this proposal is approved) is 1 month.

The process once 1 month has been reached:

  1. The council secretary or deputy will create an opening for a new lead position, to see who is interested in doing the role. A proposal will then be created to begin review of applicants 1 week after.
  2. Once the review period starts, any user with enough tokens can create a proposal to fire the current lead and/or hire a new lead. Note: the current lead must be fired if a new lead is to be hired.
  3. Whatever proposals are made by the community (including by council members), the council can at this point vote on whether to fire the previous lead and hire a new lead, or to keep the previous lead in place.
  4. The current lead can also apply for the opening.
  5. Whatever the result of the new opening is, a new opening proposal will be made 1 month after, repeating the process.

In the event the current lead is fired, they can stay on as:

  • a guide (to help the newly hired lead on how to manage the position for a week). This will be paid at the previous rate + 50% for one week (via spending proposal)
  • also as a worker if they apply for an opening. The new lead is encouraged to hire the old lead as a worker if there are enough places, since the old lead will have desirable skills to help with the group.
  • In the event of a firing, the exact criteria for the transition period between the old and new lead will be discussed on the forum with the old lead and issued as a text proposal for approval by the council
  • In the event of a firing due to the soft term limit, it should not be considered that the lead was bad at the position, this is just a process to try and get a rotation of leads.

Exceptions

  • In the event the current lead is still in mid-process of implementing something important, they can create a text proposal with a description of what they're working on to allow for a one-time 2 week extension to their term before the opening proposal is created by the council secretary or deputy council secretary.
