Please see the answer below:
- How would you describe your leadership style?
The leadership within MoR - within the management team - CL and DCL, is what I would consider mixture of free-rein and democratic. Depending on the context, each DCL within the organization is responsible for key deliverable to meet the clan short term and long term goals. This allows them to be empowered as well as providing the support and enabling other members to feel motivated and empowered by providing them the flexibility to decide the best process to execute and to meet goals. That said this is what we would consider free-rein. However, it is important to mention that when it comes to planning we have a democratic process that the management (CL/DCL) discuss and give the best guidance to the members of the clan.
- What advice or tips would you give to other Clan Leaders or people looking to start their own Clan?
Here are the Do and Don't of clan leaders:
Do: Be supportive, assertive, empower, and provide clear well defined goals. Motivate through identify strengths of each member. Focus on that to develop ways for them to maximize fun. Last, but not the least - do not beat down on people's short comings/mistakes. Encourage an environment of learning -be open to feedback - good and bad - identify ways to improve. LISTEN!
Don't: be demanding, controlling, and don't use members.
