This is a question to everyone, you don't have to be in a leadership position or even a mayor in HC.
Do you believe anyone else qualify as leader, he/she that is able achieve a goal using teamwork?
How I define a leader in HC is someone who is able to motive a team to work for a common good, while still maintain a friendly position with their citizens.
It would also be nice to throw in a few tips for people to use.
Here is a few tips from me personally but you may be different about them.
Tip#1 Make sure everyone is cooperative, everyone likes to do their own thing but there has to be time for everyone to partake a town activity, may that be raiding, mining or a game. Distribute task to people in advance if you have too, a party is a great way to pass the time and getting things done faster. In Orion, we were able to get a large part of the town to dig a 50 x 50 x 10 high room which only took about two hours with everyone's cooperation.
Tip#2 Make everyone feel comfortable. Disputes will occur and it's best to address them right away before other instances between the same people pile up. As a mayor, you may need to act as a judge.On the same subject of making people feel comfortable, when you get a new citizen it's a great idea to make a new friend. Try to make them open up, TeamSpeak is a great way if they are willing, if not them typing will have to do. (Remember, there are those that are shy or socially challenged, it's still a good idea to attempt to make friends with them) making friends in Herocraft should be everyone's goal, it makes cooperation easier and enjoyable.
Tip# 3 Know their strength, distribute work load accordingly and reasonably, DONOT push all the unfavorable work on the person who is most cooperative, that is unfair to treat them as such. Again I am semi-revising tip#1 but this is important for a successful township, if work is not distributed among people. Things will get done slowly, treating a citizen with such ideals will make them feel less of themselves and if they are new, will probably leave if they feel mistreated. You should be keen on making them stay by complying them with a task they feel comfortable and if done in a group, it will make them feel gratified.
---I will add more, later on from what I gather but I feel I am capable of being an effective leader to answer my own question when needed too.)---
