See Title


Must remain civil, professional, and respectful at all times.

Must be able and willing to devote a significant amount of time to the task.

Should have very strong listening and communication skills with a focus on clear, direct, organized, and honest thought. Should have a strong tendency toward openness and communicating on a regular basis. Communication should be proactive and not reactive. Effective use of newsgroups, e-mail, printed publications, and the Web is a definite plus.

Must have an incredibly thick skin. Must not be prone to jumping to conclusions. Should assume the best in people unless conclusive evidence proves otherwise.

Can not only accept but actively encourages and rewards constructive criticism.

Must have strong organizational skills, be able to prioritize, schedule, and follow-up well.

Must be able to recruit, build, motivate, and maintain strong teams. Must be able to delegate effectively to such teams.

Must be willing to publicly acknowledge and learn from mistakes. Must be willing to acknowledge weaknesses in knowledge and close those gaps if needed.

Must be goal oriented and driven towards completing tasks. Must appropriately and diligently hold others accountable for doing the same.

Must have strong leadership characteristics including a passion for the organization’s mission. Must be able to forge a vision for the future of the organization and help shape a written, public strategic plan to realize that vision.



CSM and diapers should be changed frequently and all for the same reason.

Sounds really cheesy like a canned resume given as an example by your guidance counselor.

Nope. The traits of a good CSM, just like any other elected official are:

The ability to get re-elected.

Wouldn't that make Meissa Anunthiel one of the better ones?

Will admit some of the early ones have people on the CSM that seem to run away from the game afterwards, and of course there are those that got thrown out over the CSM lifespan.

Any spelling, grammatical and punctuation errors are because frankly, I don't care!!

Sure. Longevity means that the voters wanted to keep him around.

If a politician doesn't serve their constituents' interests, the constituents will reasonably stop voting for that politician and the politician will not win another term.

Or, as in EVE, they will scam people to get votes and get re-elected in order to do nothing.

And if they're good enough to do that multiple times, shame on the electorate.

These two rule out any high-sec miner as a CSM candidate.

I am going to assume your employment applications often include checklists and fill these out forms that gets rubberstamped because they are short one guy on the night shift.

Your characteristics is just cheesy as hell, there is no criteria needed. I am more interested in what the candidate has done, where he came from (ingame) and how well he or she writes. Ie if he or she is some irrelevant mission runner with with a blog I'll take a look at what they have to say.
