Hello everyone! Now that the Council has been elected, I’m curious about what comes next. According to the [Open Call to DAO Council Nominations](https://forum.decentraland.org/t/open-call-to-dao-council-nominations/23403): - The Council should define the DAO’s direction by drafting and presenting strategic guidelines within the first 60 days. - It should identify key focus areas and long-term goals to help drive Decentraland’s growth. If I understand correctly, after setting these guidelines, the next steps will be: - Recruiting the **Executive Director and the Executive Arm** - Publishing the **Annual Strategic Execution Plan** and **Budget** - Publishing the **Treasury Management Strategy** Is this accurate, or are there any additional details beyond what was outlined in the _Open Call_, or have I misunderstood something? Over the past few weeks, I’ve had a lot of conversations with the community about the DAO Council elections, and there’s clearly a lot of interest in what happens next. I’d love to share some insights during my next _Toxic Tuesday_ event, so any info you can provide would be much appreciated! Thanks in advance! ToxicWaifu ---

Will this Question be seen by the Council members? I also linked to this question from the original council proposal > [@\[DAO:e1ff3d8\] Proposal for Establishing a Council for Decentraland DAO](https://forum.decentraland.org/t/dao-e1ff3d8-proposal-for-establishing-a-council-for-decentraland-dao/23282/26): > > maybe, behind the scenes, so the ‘right’ people can be picked wink ---

Hi Toxicwaifu, we are definitely excited to get things going. Right now, we are planning to hold a group call next week (depending on everyone’s availability) to introduce ourselves and to discuss and further define or refine the objectives for the DAO Council. At this time we started to set up an efficient way of communicating and trying to get everyone together. ---

Hello @MetaRyuk, Thanks for the update! It’s great to hear that the Council is already working on establishing efficient communication and defining the next steps. Looking forward to any insights you may be able to share once things have settled! Wishing you and the Council much success during this important phase! ---

The council has to represent the community. Not the other way around. My main concern is establishing effective communication channels between the council & the community. I would like to see some type of a goal framework from this newly appointed council to get the ball rolling. At least everyone will have a clear idea on what to work on & iterations can be adjusted as required or demanded from all parties. ---

You are calling our co-founder @esteban a clown? How is this even allowed? Can someone please ban this physiologically ill human being. ---

Last I checked I was still in the discord, I think you’re mistaken. 🕶 ---
