Generals
Discord Usage
Remember that you as a General have the ability to assign roles to members when they join into your division Discord server - make sure you and leadership are getting the link out to new members and getting them assigned so all your members have access to the clan chat box and can communicate with their fellow clan members. Make sure you and your leadership are putting out clan news and announcements as needed, as well as using the leadership channel. Communication is the key to success!
Holding Leadership Accountable
As a General, you must hold your Captains and Lieutenants to their responsibilities as listed in the rank structure - making sure you are calling them out for what they are doing well and what they need to improve on. This includes making sure that your leaders are on top of holding squad meetings and game nights every week, and looking at their online activity - specifically on if they are playing with their squad members to ensure no member is left behind. This in turn is a part of your responsibilities as a General, to ensure your clan is developing and progressing as it should, instead of staying stagnant or declining. This means making sure that everyone is doing their jobs as detailed in the rank responsibilities and rank structure.
If someone is missing and not completing a couple of responsibilities, talk to them early - see what's causing them to complete some things and not others. If you head it off at the pass before it gets really bad, you more than often will be able to prevent your clan from going stagnant or eventually dying, but if you don't talk to them early you'll have a much bigger issue on your hands. Being proactive instead of reactive will make things easier on both you and the leadership within the clan.
That being said, when someone is having issues and not fulfilling those responsibilities, you have an obligation to talk to that leader and tell them - not just deciding after a few weeks that it isn't working, without trying to help them turn it around.
Upcoming Games and New Consoles
As a reminder, we brought this up about a month ago - the new Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S are due to release in just over a month on November 10th.
Over the next couple of weeks, we need you to get with your clan and members to find out who is getting new consoles, new games, and making sure you and your leaders are prepared for any changes ahead of time.
As always, if your clan needs to change what your primary games are, please let your Section Leader know so they can submit an Update Clan request through the Help Desk to help keep those games up to date for potential transfers, members returning through the GWG, etc.
