65: Are You an Accidental Leader?

In this episode we’re going to be talking about leadership; more specifically, accidental and intentional leadership. Whether you have a team of 1 of 1,000 you have a responsibility to lead. One of the biggest problems I see in network marketing is people falling into the role of an accidental leader. If you lack the necessary leadership skills and ability, your team will never continue to grow.   If you want to see your team grow and be successful, you need to start making the shift from being an “Accidental Leader” to practicing “Intentional Leadership”.   Intentional leadership is a very clearly defined, structured process that facilitates your own growth as a leader, as well as help you identify and develop other leaders on your team. Itʼs a hands on process and at times can feel like a lot of work, but itʼs whatʼs necessary for you to develop other strong leaders on your team.     To start providing them clear direction on what they should be doing, and helping them understand what it really means to be a leader. People need clear direction and support to thrive and grow. And if you donʼt provide that for them, theyʼll go find it somewhere else.     There are three main areas of focus for intentional leadership that we are discussing today: how to lead yourself, identifying the right people to work with on your team, and how to develop these people into independent leaders.   Start leading yourself better, find the right people to work with, and be INTENTIONAL about the way you lead them.   Interested in learning more about the 4 Phases of Intentional Leadership?
