Success is no accident.
It is hard work, perseverance, learning, studying, sacrifice, and most of all,
love of what you are doing.
Leadership Accountability
If you have promoted a captain and for whatever reason they are not meeting the requirements of the position, you as the leader of the clan must take action. First of all you have to make sure when promoting the Captain that they understand the responsibilities of the rank and when they fall short on those responsibilities, you have to hold them accountable. Meet with them let them know that it is unacceptable and that you expect that they will do what is required. If they are unable to hold up their end of the deal, then you have to be willing to make a change in leadership. Ineffective leadership is the quickest way to doom a clan.
Working with Peers
To be successful as a group of leaders, we have to be working as a team. You have to be a strong enough leader to be able to put petty differences aside to work for the betterment of the whole team. There is no room for condescending remarks or attitudes when a peer comes to you for help. Furthermore, if you are an XS or General with experience, you should be sharing your experiences to help your fellow peers. None of us have the exact same experiences, therefore you can be a valuable asset during those times. For example, say that a new General/XS has a clan that is having issues and is in need of rebuilding. If you know that this leader has never been through this before and you have, why wouldn't you want to share your knowledge to help your peer and the community.
Furthermore, if you are a General/XS who has produced other leaders out of your clan or section, you should develop a mentor/protege relationship with those leaders. You should be there for them to make sure that they are successful.
Complacency & Time
Remember we should always be striving to better ourselves. The day we grow complacent, is the day we start to move backwards. Keep going forwards! Time is limited, so choose what you want to do with it. Do you want to sit around and do nothing? Or make the decisions that will make you happy and ensure your destiny? It's ultimately up to you.
Multi-Platform
XG is now a multi-platform gaming community, but the majority of everyone is still Xbox. In order to keep the valued members of XG who play on PC or PlayStation involved, some changes will need to be made, and they are already in place. The XG server and each division server has discord channels that are mainly used for meetings, but they should also, and this is imperative, should also be used for gaming. The main issue is that the Xbox app is not the best way to communicate, and discord does offer a much more seamless way of communication. Discord voice channels can be added where and when necessary, making XG a more inclusive gaming community. Growth in this community is always what we strive for, as it grows the community, and not changing the way we communicate to include everyone would be a great disservice to many of our non-Xbox gamers, and the community as a whole.
