Nouns need a full-time team of vetted executors and operators committed to building, organizing, and completing work. This isn't a criticism of anyone within Nouns, but in my eight months here, I haven't encountered anyone in the community with the real-world operational experience or capacity to take on this role effectively—or who wants to. Outside of the website/content/social dilemma and where things should live, we also need stronger support and onboarding for current and new holders. Proposals require more thorough vetting, management, and maintenance to ensure they have the best chance of success. Once a proposal passes, a dedicated team should guide it and maximize its potential. We have more than enough talent within Nouns to organize these teams and hire new folks within our community for specific projects, which is the current mission of /cares.

The dedicated team guides proposals. Completely against a group being involved in the output of all props. Nouns is exciting about the flexibility of all. It loses its shine if we just turn into corporate America.

I'm not saying this should be mandatory, but having the option for support and prioritizing success should be top of mind if we want to sustain and attract attention to Nouns. Structure shouldn't be viewed as a negative—most leading DAOs and projects incorporate it in some form. At some point, we need to find alternatives to slow the bleed + We already have retained talent and teams, so why not dedicate a group to support onboarding, execution, and coordinating the Nouns universe? This would allow us to move as a unit and share resources effectively. Let’s also not confuse general structure and upkeep with a corporate c-suite that doesn't align with our culture. I suggest we find these people internally and leverage the incredible talent that’s already within Nouns.

The biggest problem is not execution, it's that nouns has no vision and no way to measure success. Until nouns finds it's voice and decides what it wants to become and strive for, no amount of operational support is going to change things. I think you are well intentioned and what you are suggesting could be helpful after nouns matures out of this experimental stage. For now, what I think nouns needs most is a leader to set a vision but not in an authoritative way. Something similar to the way vitalik sets the vision for the eth roadmap but ultimately does not control what gets built
