What kind of company?

Asking coz a Director+ at one company can mean jack sh*t at another. As a Director your actual stats chops probably mean nothing at many larger orgs and it's all about playing politics. Get a major in psych-* or whatever.

If you want to stay in your presumably more startuppy Director role it might still be relevant.

But you said it's not for the relevance. So do whatever makes you happy and leave it out on your resume when it feels off and put it on when it might help.

I had a "Director+" boss once who got a Dr. title to be able to put it on his CV and business card. Got it at a cheap eastern European college that was known for basically handing these out to people like him that write a "thesis" on the side while managing a department of 20-30 devs. Of course that isn't something that's visible on his business card.

Hah, truth for larger orgs: "major in psych-* or whatever." I'm at a mid-size company now and have done both the large company and start-up world.
