# Purpose

This playbook serves as a guide for hosting Catalyst Working Group (CWG) workshops to empower community facilitators with tools to effectively organize, manage, and execute these workshops.&#x20;

By harnessing the diverse talents, insights, and energies of the global Cardano community,  attendees will collaboratively ideate, explore, and discuss topics.&#x20;

An environment of inspirational networking, inclusion and collaboration is encouraged to grow the community's role in developing Catalyst’s funding thesis for the Cardano ecosystem.&#x20;

We must also examine Catalyst’s operating parameters and processes, ensuring that Catalyst governance initiatives are responsive to the community's needs and aspirations.&#x20;

In doing so, the discussions and networking events advance the community-driven innovation and co-operation of Catalyst. So this playbook will help underline the big questions hosts must ask and give a step by step guide to a successful, energetic, and fun series of events for the Cardano Community.
