Polkadot Embassy Shake-up
After very little progress being made in the first months of the new Polkadot Ambassador program, Referendum 1186 has been proposed to overhaul it. It proposes to reduce the number of Head Ambassadors from 21 to the following 10 members: -Lucy -Lorena Blockya -Alice und Bob -Dot Play Angie -DonDiegoSanchez -Abdulbee -zoemc -Leemo -Rish -six These members have agreed on a 100-day plan, which they are already beginning to execute. Three HAs have been assigned the role of developing the Ambassador Program, while the remaining seven will be focused on community growth and business development.
Shawn Shows You How
In his Ambassador Program 2.0 proposal, Shawn Tabrizi suggests that the threshold for Candidate Ambassadors to be promoted to Ambassador could be 5 successful tip requests of at least $200. To demonstrate how easy that would be, he has submitted a tip request for his work on writing his proposal.
Shawn's Vision for the Polkadot Ambassador Program
Polkadot Fellow Shawn Tabrizi has published Ambassador Program 2.0 (Shawn's Vision), an alternative approach to the new Ambassador Program. Rather than having 21 head ambassadors on a $120k pa salary, he proposes two full-time roles of Ambassador Management compensated at OECD average salaries for Project Managers. The remaining ambassadors could work their way up through the ranks by meeting thresholds for treasury tipping and proposals. Shawn places emphasis on initial frugality and retroactive payment while climbing the ranks, with the idea that by the time an Ambassador reaches the higher ranks, there will be an opportunity to earn even more than $120k pa.
