In associations where people dont know each other or havent agreed on some rules before joining its very tough to do a captains job. Especially so now when everything is new.

Thats why i liked the suggestion here that a captain has to be diplomatic and a psychologist lest you frighten away the whole group before you can even bond.

In future i imagine captains to have an important role when teams get stronger and start strategising more. I can imagine a situation where association members form facebook groups and websites to showcase their achievements and create a lively social environment of like minded managers having fun together.

I used to play playstation clubs and im happy now i can get back those feelings playing in an association.

To finish my essay, right now a good captain needs to be patient, send gentle reminders motivations and congratulations. It helps that he also set some ground rules like language to be used in chat and so on.

Have fun managers !
