E Staff

Summary

This appendix gathers guidance for paid staff and people considering paid work. Staff status is separate from participation, governance roles, and leadership practice. The pages distinguish existing explanations from draft expectations and decisions still to be made.

• E.0 Beliefs about staff — Why a volunteer movement has staff, and which arrangements count as staff.
• E.1 Expectations — Draft expectations for overlapping contributor, outcome-owner, and player-coach roles.
• E.2 Compensation — Factors under discussion; no compensation policy has been adopted.
• E.3 Professional development — Development conversations, opportunities, and unresolved commitments.
• E.4 Department-specific guidance — Draft tech-team strategy and the two-week sprint cycle.

For leadership in paid or volunteer roles, read 3 Lead. Maintained policies and rubrics live in A Reference materials.
