Coordinator Role Responsibilities
Bridge Communication Between Sections
- Act as a link between your section and the rest of the project.
- Ensure requests from other sections are addressed and make requests when needed (e.g., art needing lore context).
Structuring and Standardization
- Organize and structure output from your section (e.g., documentation outlines, product standards).
- Maintain consistency across project assets (e.g., standard image sizes, formats).
Discussion Management and Summarization
- Summarize key points of discussions (not every message, but outcomes and expectations).
- Keep track of what needs to be done in your section and take action when necessary.
Decision Making and Polls
- Create and manage polls for important decisions.
- Only coordinators should create polls to maintain order and clarity.
Support and Team Assistance
- Answer questions and help new team members get oriented.
- Provide a role where people can ask questions about your section.
- Delegate work among contributors as needed.
Moderation and Thread Management
- Mediate discussions and keep conversations on-topic.
- Direct off-topic discussions to the appropriate channels or create new discussion spaces.
- Control what is open for public conversation and what should be moderated.
- Limit unnecessary thread creation to avoid duplicate discussions.
Coordination with Project Managers
- Participate in meetings with Project Managers to align decisions and structure discussions.
