I sometimes think it’s because of the Dunning Kruger effect - that the people with the least amount of knowledge/skills just have an overconfidence about themselves - and overconfidence is something a lot of managers seem to have. In contrast, a lot of the people I think would actually be good managers don’t want to be managers because they either don’t think they would do it well, or they just can’t be bothered with the shit that comes with being a manager.
