heh. i am only recently moving into such vp-of-engineering role after 30+ years of doing everything softwarish that is not managerial-or-political, by any level/title. All the possible technical stuff plus mentoring, teaching, philosophy, methodology, cultures, "health"... Why now? May be too late.. but managerial/political stuff has always kept me apart. esp. over-bureaucratizing the "process" towards people. The doubly-faced "you are not a cog but you are part of this machine" Where can you go if you are already there, succesfully?
Probably sideways, and much deeper. Growth doesn't need to be up. (what is "up" anyway?). It can be as size or area or volume.. or number of alternative worldviews/mindsets.. Ask yourself, what is carrer? "growth"? And, what is "interesting"? in your terms.. the answers might surprise you. Degrees do not matter, except @ some bureaucratic places aka government. But the ways of learning, which you can learn while doing it, do matter.. And it's same with teaching/mentoring - what you learn by doing it, noone can ever tell you. Mind you, half might be 'seems i dont know enough of this to explain it to others' have fun |
