Accidental Leaders
Thousands of professionals who excel in their current role get promoted in an organization and before they know it, they find themselves in senior and leadership roles with more responsibility, but without any support or training.
These professionals are good at their core jobs where they manage themselves or a small team. Being thrust in a leadership role where their decisions impact the whole organization can backfire for many.

Accident Leaders And People Management Skills
A competent manager who is given a leadership role starts to have these problems:
- Converging planning and execution, which requires people management skills, become a gray area for accidental leaders.
- While they excel in short-term deliveries, accidental leaders need to understand that their work will now not impact the here and now, but the future of the company.

Embrace Change
An accidental leader is not trained for divergent thinking.
Change is crucial for any company, and a leader has to ensure that it remains growing, vibrant and viable by constantly driving the change using acquisitions, divestment, expansion or contraction.

What Accidental Leaders Need To Do
- Make a difference by leading in an inspired way, embracing change and being courageous.
- Have the willingness to live with ambiguity and uncertainty, while being optimistic.
- Identify the team that is being led by you and study the leadership model that you should be providing.
- Do a self-assessment and find out the skills that are lacking in you, then finding the right support structure to imbibe them.

Best app ever! You heard it right. This app has helped me get back on my quest to get things done while equipping myself with knowledge everyday.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!
