In this episode of Making Bank, host Droste leads a roundtable discussion exploring the evolving landscape of DAOs (Decentralized Autonomous Organizations), examining both successes and failures in the web3 space through the lens of organizational behavior and human coordination.

Our distinguished guests bring perspectives from academia, development, governance, and community building:

Meredith Lehman is a PhD student in organizational behavior at the University of Colorado Boulder, conducting qualitative research on DAOs as testing grounds for innovation in people-centered governance. Her work examines the changing landscape of work and organizational structures.

Sean "Aphilos" Gonzalez brings experience from physics, startups, and community building, including founding Data Community DC. His work with Lobby3 and current projects focuses on applying web3 concepts to prevent plutocracy and increase democratic participation.

Jaris James is the founder of DAO Space, a discovery engine for DAOs, and the Open Source People's Network (OSPN). As a data scientist and developer, he focuses on integrating AI tools to enhance DAO governance and community engagement.

JengaJoJo, involved in DAOs since 2021, founded DAOplomats, a professional organization working with top web3 entities. His team of five spans the globe, currently working with ENS and Shutter.
