Weekly Topic - "Community's Direction"
Every Community shares this hierarchy:
There is NO hierarchy.
Higher roles don’t mean superiority.
The Manager is not the “owner” of the Community.
The Managers do the dirty work - and get paid for it.
But they don’t build the Community for themselves.
They build it for the people in the Community.
There is a certain online game.
Since its launch, every new update is voted by its players.
It needs 70% positive votes to pass.
It’s a high bar that lets the game move in the direction the Community truly wants.
The game has plenty of employees (moderators / managers), and it makes a lot of money.
But they all do what the Community asks for.
I believe that’s a perfect example.
Personally, I’m the moderator of my Community.
But I’m also learning Community management, same as everyone.
And I’m happy to go where the Community goes.
So, the direction should come from the Community - not only the Manager.
