I think I would also add another thing: Communicate with your recruiters! One of the biggest problems I've had as Guildmaster is my officers recruiting people without talking to them first to make sure they're a good match for us. It erodes trust both ways when the GM has to dismiss a player an officer invited. There are people I no longer trust to recruit, and I'm sure there are people who now don't think I respect their judgment because I've dismissed their mentees from our company.

My general rule is that if I wouldn't be friends with someone irl, I don't want them in my FC.
