Some were born to lead. But many are just “accidental managers.” Take, Dustin Moskovitz. The millennial co-founded Facebook with his Harvard roommate, Mark Zuckerberg, and went on to become the company’s first CTO before leaving to found Asana, a project management platform, in 2008.
Again, Moskovitz led the startup (this time as CEO), taking the company public in September 2020 and growing it into the $3.4 billion giant it is today, before stepping down earlier this year. But now, looking back, he admits the top job was never really for him.
