This page describe the role of State Manager
#REDIRECT [[USA:State Manager]]
 
Initially created for the US community, in order to organize the editing effort across their fifty states, this role is now used in several other communities, as a springboard for country-wide responsibilities, providing an intermediate step between the [[Area Manager]] role and the [[Country Manager]] Role.
 
From a global perspective, "State" is defined as a subdivision of a country, generally resulting from a geographical, administrative or political division or resulting from the grouping of several cities / districts. It is a territorial unit that make sense for the citizens. It is the local communities responsibility to define what is a "state" in the context of their country.
 
From this standpoint, a State Manager takes a responsibility for a "State"

* Identify key areas in their "state".
* SM will contribute to identify the good and the bad editors.
* Keeping Country Manager (and local Champ where available) informed with good and bad editors (Basically the Country Managers would like to get the SM's opinion on an editor)
* Keeping an eye on newer editors throughout the "state" and educate them by mentoring them informally or formally.
 
 
== How to become a State Manager ==
 
The SM nomination process is specific to each country and is usually defined by the country management (Local and Global Champs).
As a guideline, it is recommended to let the final approval/decision assigned by the Country Champs and the Country Coordinator, especially because this role is not the same as AM with a larger area. There is a much greater community involvement with this role.
 
There could also be multiple SMs for a "state".
