Top 11 Traits of a Community Manager

Lifted from Best Engaging Communities, a shockingly good site on community building (shocking because I hadn't dropped by it before), the eleven traits of an increasingly popular role of community manager:

#1 - Knowledgeable about the community's domain
#2 - Well connected to a range of community members
#3 - Recognized by peers as competent in a broad range of community subjects
#4 - Widely known and respected for his/her ability to facilitate a group of key contributors
#5 - Maintains the group's focus on establishing areas of common interest and priorities
#6 - Puts the community as a priority over the company
#7 - Is an educator and teaches the community about the company and its products, often in a non-invasive manner
#8 - Uses the tools and communication style of the community
#9 - Puts a human face on the company, both online and at events
#10 - Connects the right people in the company with the right customers and knows when to get out of the way
#11 - Pushes through barriers at the corporate level

So a big question for many firms, if your going to hire an internal cnadidate to perform this job, from which function will they most likely come (the answer is most likely telling on how you run your business).
