S8 E10 | Organizational Design and Governance Frameworks w/Amy Jung (Safe)

Rehash: A Web3 Podcast

On this episode of Rehash, we’re speaking with Amy Jung, Governance Lead at Safe and an OG in the Ethereum and specifically DAO space, about all things organization design, governance, and her hottest takes about DAOs.

Amy joined the Safe team back in March of this year and also has her own DAO operations and strategy consultancy called Shared Realities, where she helps organizations and teams with their progressive decentralization strategy and execution, organizational design, and community development. Previously, she worked at MakerDAO for two years as their Head of Community Development and ConsenSys as their Design Operations Lead.

In this episode, Amy reveals many of her strategies and frameworks she uses to help organizations decentralize, starting with questions any organization should ask themselves to decide first and foremost whether it even makes sense for them to decentralize.

Amy presents information in really clearly thought out frameworks that anyone can take back to their organization and implement, and her dedication to the space and deep expertise in DAO organization design is unmatched.
