Are you a JOYMAKER?

You don't have to be loud, funny, or performative. You just have to choose to elevate the people around you. Joymakers believe…

Joy is medicine that multiplies when shared.

NO, I KEEP MY JOY TO MYSELF

Internal

Board of advisors

The board steers the Joymaker Rebellion β€” vetting initiatives, delegating projects, and holding the rhythm of monthly meetings and weekly share-omony. This is the internal hub.

How the board works

1

Monthly board meeting

The chair sets the agenda; members review proposals, share wins, and delegate new projects. Expect ~4 weeks between proposal submission and a decision.

2

Weekly share-omony

Open floor for any board member to share progress, ask for help, or surface what's alive for them. Lightweight and relational.

3

Claim a project

Browse the projects list below. If an open project fits your bandwidth, claim it β€” ownership moves to you until you release or deliver it.

4

Deliver & report back

Move the project to in_progress, then done. Bring the outcome to the next board meeting so the movement learns from it.

The standard

Code of conduct

Our Board of Advisors is a community of active contributors. We ask each advisor to help create the culture we want Joymaker to embody: generous, courageous, communicative, and engaged.

1

Monthly participation

Set up your schedule so that you can attend the monthly board meeting regularly.

2

Communicate when absent

If you're unable to attend a monthly meeting, let the board know and share an update in the board chat, including your current progress and your weekly Joymaker win.

3

Stay informed

Review the meeting minutes after each meeting so you remain up to date on decisions, conversations, and next steps.

4

Follow through

If you commit to an action, introduction, or contribution, follow through β€” or communicate promptly if you're unable to.

5

Give honest feedback

Share your perspective openly and constructively. We value candor over politeness that leaves important things unsaid.

6

Resolve conflict directly

Address disagreements or concerns promptly and one-on-one with the person involved. Avoid gossip, triangulation, or discussing conflicts behind someone's back.

7

Assume positive intent

Approach disagreements with curiosity, respect, and a genuine desire to understand.

8

Protect confidentiality

Keep confidential business, personal, and board information private unless explicitly agreed otherwise.

9

Contribute, don't just consume

Look for ways to contribute your ideas, expertise, connections, encouragement, and energy to the mission.

10

Communicate honestly

If your capacity, priorities, or ability to participate changes, let the board know rather than quietly disengaging.

The standard

You don't need to be perfect or available all the time. We simply ask that you communicate, contribute, and treat one another with respect.

Delegatable work

Projects & roles

Claim what fits your bandwidth, deliver it, release it when done. Chairs and admins can add or edit items.
