# How We Work Together Being a DAO means that team members are actually the community of like-minded individuals who collectively work together towards the shared [vision, mission and objectives](/about-us/vision-mission-and-objectives.md). {% hint style="info" %} Team members (including the founders) participate without compensation unless compensatory proposals are submitted and voted on by the community of Alp token holders {% endhint %} The group is open for others to join who show passion and dedication to the mission. ### Community Roles * Community Management & Moderation * Development & Engineering * Partnership Building * Event Organisation & Support * Marketing ### Alpine Council There's a group called the Alpine Council, which are early contributors and supporters. This group's aim is to help steward the community and new members, guide initiatives and collectively vote on proposals. ### Founder Roles The founders of Alps are committed to actively steer growth and proliferation from the beginning to help guide the course. Over time, the founders aim to relinquish all control to the community. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
