Exclusive Interview with Author of Guild Leadership: Lessons from the Virtual World

Posted August 19th, 2008 by Cody Bye

Books on guild leadership are all the rage in our current MMOG era. Last year, Ten Ton Hammer’s Jeff “Ethec” Woleslagle reviewed Legend of the Syndicate, a book chronicling the rise of “The Syndicate” into the most prestigious guild in the entire world. Now the Ten Ton Hammer staff has had the opportunity to interview Jeon Rezvani, author of Guild Leadership: Lessons from the Virtual World, and ask his opinion on a number of intriguing subjects, including guild leadership and real world applications. We hope you enjoy the conversation!

Ten Ton Hammer: What will players gather from Guild Leadership: Lessons from the Virtual World?

Jeon:
Players will learn some of the similarities and differences between leadership in online games and the real world. They will learn that many of the skills that they practice and witness each day in online games can and should be applied in the real world (whether they are parenting, coaching, leading projects, etc.). They ultimately will learn how to become exemplary leaders.
