[QUOTE="XAquaticxX, post: 786648, member: 90788"] [B]Meeting Notes 8/30/2020 We All Make Choices, But In The End Our Choices Make Us Generals Building A Leadership Pipeline[/B] For your clan, you need to have a leadership development plan in place in order for everyone to be successful and achieving their goals. Some might think that training doesn't happen until someone has reached the rank of lieutenant (first leadership rank), but if you take a look at the rank structure under rank responsibilities, you'll actually find that learning and training starts at the rank of private. See the below rank responsibilities for a Private. #2. [B]Learn, understand[/B], and follow the Honor Code. #3. [B]Learn, understand[/B], and follow the rank structure and chain of command. Notice the words [B]learn[/B] and [B]understand[/B] are used, not just locate and read, as it is more than just knowing where to find these items on the website, it's about explaining our rules and guidelines in a way that each individual member understands. So how are they to get that knowledge? The number one priority of Generals and Captains is to get recruits and privates to the rank of sergeant. That means more than simply promoting members just because they spent their two weeks at private. It means that leadership development begins at this level by providing the foundation of knowledge that every member needs to understand. Specifically, Xiled Gaming's Four Main Components or Pillars which set us apart from every other gaming community, which include the Honor Code, Rank Structure, Promotion Requirements, and Clan Structure. Training can be done in many different ways, from covering information in clan meetings, to one on one training with members throughout the week - many clans cover an article of the Honor Code each week, one rank responsibility, one promotion requirement, and so on. Also, make sure that you are going fully over the rank responsibilities when doing a promotion and ensuring the member accepts them and asks any questions they may have. This will set them up for success in their new role. Establishing a system of providing this information will start to establish your leadership pipeline. Members tend to be more active and will want to move up the ranks more once they understand the foundation of our community and what is expected of them. You do not want to have a gap in your pipeline due to no one being prepared or trained, just as you do not want your leadership pipeline to be clogged because someone is promoted to a higher position without having the basic knowledge required for the rank. This is not preparing them for success and will cause harm to the clan. When a leader has to step down due to personal life, or if someone is demoted for failing to complete their responsibilities, it shouldn't cause the clan to completely fail. If a clan is doing really well, you also need a pipeline in place to prepare for potential squad splits or a clan split, so that you have members ready to move up into the new ranks created by splitting. [B]Clan and Squad Lists[/B] As a reminder, clan and squad lists are due by tomorrow, August 31st @ 11:59pm EST. You need to verify that they have been posted, do not just take your Captain's word for it - check to make sure it was done.
