Glad you bumped this Michel, I was also surprised by how little attention it received.
You requested feedback, so I hope the below is useful.
High level: we’ve been working on our strategy for 2024. I was expecting these posts to be very, very helpful for this. However, for some reason, they’ve only been slightly helpful. Below I’ve listed a few suggestions for what might have made them more helpful (if this info is contained in the posts and I’ve missed it I apologise in advance):
(I.e., within meta work, how much of our resources should we spend on, e.g., lobbying, field building, social movement support, or network development?)
Information to help us determine our community size goals (bigger or smaller)
(The rowing vs steering q was helpful here, but I would have preferred something like ‘What do you envision as the optimal size of the EA community in five years?’ or ‘For the upcoming year, where should our primary focus lie: expanding the EA community’s size or enhancing the depth of engagement and commitment among existing members?’)
Information on talent bottlenecks.
(The AIS survey was useful here, but we would have liked info about other fields. This Q from the Leader’s Forum would have been useful)
Information to help us decide how to handle PR, or even just how much of a priority PR ought to be
Information to help us figure out what to do with all of those EAs who want to excel in using their careers to do good, but lack advice from the EA community on how to do this (because their talents don’t match identified talent bottlenecks)
