> When you outgrow your current company, move to a better one Preferably one with a formal, rewarded mentoring system in place that is outside the management structure. I'm sure they have this sort of thing at Google/Facebook/Apple, etc. as well, but at MSFT I spent a bunch of my time finding technical mentors --- mostly outside of my organization --- for my direct reports. Finding them is easy for people with < 7 years of experience, but once you have > 13 years of IC work (as more than five of my directs did!), it takes serious effort to both help you identify a direction that it would be worthwhile to grow in and then find somebody who can actually help with it. |
