Austin's Conjunctured: The Manifesto (I love this idea!!!!)



Manifesto
- Transparency - Conjunctured members, clients, and society maintain trust by being completely open with one another.
- Fairness - It won’t work if a few people are exploiting the community for their own personal gains.
- Self-Selected - Members choose the projects they want to work on by opting in or out.
- Communication - Clear communication in any channel facilitates work flow.
- Humanization - The co-company and its members should work on something that is compelling on a human level.
- Trust Construction - Trust in the community and its members to do what they do best.
- Monitoring - The community should call out members who aren’t pulling their weight.
- Peer Review - Co-company participants review and rate each others’ work in an open forum.
- Come & Go Policy - Members may contribute five minutes of work and leave or 200 hours. Either way, the end goal is enhanced respectively.
- Granular Work Loads - The workload must be and able to be distributed across the community.
- Sustainability - The company and its members should make money.
