# Clan Leader
The **first person to create a clan** automatically becomes the **clan leader** and gains **management privileges** over the group. **Clan leaders can manage members within their clan.**
***
### **Clan Leader Responsibilities**
#### **1️⃣ Becoming a Clan Leader**
* The **first user to create a clan** using `/createclan` is automatically assigned as the leader.
* The **clan leader has full control over membership, bans, and clan settings.**
#### **2️⃣ Managing Clan Members**
* **Remove members** if needed (`/clankick`).
* Command only works in private message.
* **Monitor and manage banned members**—view the **ban list** and **unban users** to allow them back into the clan.
**3️⃣ Changing Clan Leadership**
* The clan leader can **transfer leadership** using `/changeleader [new leader username]`.
* Command only works in private message.
* The **new leader must already be a member of the same clan**.
* If `/changeleader` is used **without specifying a username**, Bonzibot will **prompt a list of eligible members** and instructions for selection.
💡 **Pro Tip:** A **strong clan leader** ensures **efficient trade execution, better leaderboard rankings, and a highly engaged community.** 🚀
