Curious to see how many clans operate under joint leadership. Where you have a council of some sort that makes group decisions. What are common discussions you hold or have held.

How do you select the members of your council and how effective do you believe it to be.


In contrast how many here are the sole leaders of their clan and are responsible for all decisions made. How stressful or simple does it make it for you to be the only one making the laws of your clan.

Do you ever feel overwhelmed and have you ever felt like youve made the wrong decisions for you clan based on impulses as opposed to patiently working out details.


Personally Ive always been the sole leader of my clan and have sought out advice from administrators in my clan. I've always been responsible for everything citadel management, forum thread, recruiting, delegating with other clans for warring and so forth.

I can say personally it was always exciting and it was always overwhelming. But one thing Ive noticed throughout the years. When considering a council of some sort. Is that many people dont have the same amount of heart, patience and dedication towards the clan. They may not always have thr same interests and goals. And thus Ive always found it simple to maintain a "What I say goes" discretion.

The purpose of this thread is somply to share relate and contrast different styles of leading and hopefully allow myselves and others an opportunity to grasp and maybe implement some good techniques into our own clans

I mostly talk and tell people what to do.

Just kidding. We have a joint leadership where all of the Leaders can pretty much do whatever they want so long as it's within the confines of the Clan's Rules and Policies. And it works pretty good because we don't feel limited in what we do. If there is a disagreement, we meet. If I disagree with something the Deputies Owners want to do, I'll veto it and let the Clan Members decide.

We had an active council once. It didn't last very long as the Clan got to the point where we didn't need it anymore for making decisions about the Clan and I preferred to have open discussions with all Clanmates. So now we mostly use our Councils to relay messages between the Leaders and Members.

The ability to do something doesn't mean you're responsible for doing it. We've found it's best practice to spread the workload between the Leaders and to have variety of opinions.

Mostly we just play the game. A lot of time can be wasted on seemingly useless things like managing then clan. And most people don't care. So long as the Clan has constant events they can participate in, most people will be happy within the Clan.

I do get a lot of heat for stuff like the fact I don't care too much about Citadel. Like it's nice to have the Avatars and whatever, but I rarely use them. I've also been told by many that they don't like to gather resources, so I rather not annoy them asking them to if I don't need them to although I do encourage people to visit it at the very least. And yeah my Deputies tell me not to tell this to people all the time, but I only agree to disagree with them on this matter.
