Your management announced that they want to put you on a stretch assignment. In this situation, you should consider that…

		…a stretch assignment is going beyond your qualifications right from the start. Whatever your education, knowledge and skills are, you cannot fail personally. Congratulations.
		…key stakeholders must have timely and complete information regarding your qualifications to make decisions regarding your suitability for the assignment.
		…stretch assignments bear an increased risk of failure, and this is rarely outweighed by the learning and development experience expected to come with the assignment.
		…you should avoid the increased hassle coming with the assignment. It will not be enough for you to simply satisfy requirements and achieve objectives. You will have to learn a lot.
