> For those looking to transition into leadership,

My biggest pet peeve in this industry is the self anointing of the “leadership” attribute.

Its management. Just management. Some managers may be leaders, but most aren’t. Some ICs may be leaders. Most aren’t. Some politicians may be leaders, but most aren’t.

Or maybe I just never grasped what leadership means. Either in the context of the world or our industry.

I'm with you. There is a world of difference between leadership and management. Plenty of engineers who are good leaders.
