Command portal
The Command department is responsible for a lot of things. And this can differ greatly for each role since nearly each member of command is responsible for their own department and the people working there. Working in Command can be taxing and will ask a lot of you in terms of knowledge for the department you are spearheading. Communication and leadership skills are the key to success here.
Duties of the Command department are:
- Ensuring smooth operations.
- Maintaining a professional work environment.
- Leading the crew.
Members of command are given special privileges among the crew, having a personal office and a pet within your office are a few. These luxuries do not come for free though, Corporate is putting a lot of faith in their command members and they are expected to deliver results through effectively managing their departments. Players in a command role will be held to a higher roleplay standard than those that are not, lead by example.
