Share corp management tips, tricks, and tools!

I believe this is THE MOST IMPORTANT THING. COMMUNICATE.

I can barely count the number of issues and problems that could've been easily avoided had the CEO simply tried communicating with the corp mates. Share your plans, ask for ideas and opinions, voice your thoughts.

You're on top, but that doesn't mean you're alone!

It's not really a trick, tip or tool - but kind of sits smack bang right in the middle of them... SRP - ship replacement programme!

In FUN INC, we have an SRP corp project - now this covers the support ships for fleets so things like skirmishers, dictors, booshers and logi and so anyone in corp that flies one of those critical roles, gets SRP should they lose one.

I have also setup corp projects for Logi, and also PVP... so you actually get isk for killing and repping!

It is a nice little pay packet / tip for the person - and it defo has incentivised a few people to step out of their comfort zones and try something new :)

In my opinion one of the most important things to remember when being leader of any corporation is to not trust anyone. When I say anyone I say about in-game politics where mostly power, money and how many people you have decides how much you can get, i say even to not overtrust your corp members! In that term, yes of course, there has to be some trust in between but never give to one guy too much acces to to manny corp assets! What I mean by that? They can led by their greedines to betray you corp for their own good. They can be paid by other corp to lock acces to your holdings to other corpmates and other corp has in that case very easy way to capture your system!

I am going to answer this honestly.

Running an Eve corporation with more than 50+ active members is a full-time job, especially when a corporation is a multi-activity corporation. Things include

1. Industry

2. Asset management

3. Tax Management

4. Activity management

5. Constant recruitment

6. Mediation between members

7. ISK spending management

8. Fleet command management

This list goes on and on. My advice to anyone running a corporation or wanting to is to make sure this above list, is something you can do.

Personally for me, when I ran a 500+ man low sec newbie PvP corporation, we led a simple life, the bottom line is, that the corporation existed to serve the corporation, and attending ops i.e fleets was an "if you're online, you're in the fleet" no excuses.

Managing a company in EVE Online is quite complex, in the sense that it must be organized in a certain way. What we need is to think about strategy, leadership and adaptability. To manage a company we must go by points. The first thing to do is to have a vision and an objective of what we will do. We must define short and long-term objectives and communicate to those who will work with us what these objectives are to be achieved.

Then we must have tools that will support us in what we are going to do, discord is essential for faster communication. There is also Eve portal which is useful for monitoring activities and checking the performance of individual components.

We must invest in the team, alone we don't go anywhere. We must create an inclusive environment where we help each other and grow together as a family.

And then we must organize periodic meetings where everyone participates and we look at what has been done, the objectives achieved and the next ones to be achieved.
