I hopped between lead -> manager -> lead and I agree, though it’s informative to see the problem approached from both sides if you can stomach a manager stint (I had much trouble). Lead/Manager pairs have roughly the same success metrics IMO but split responsibilities and focus areas so you’re definitely right there, in my experience manager/lead is the same level on different career paths
- wjossey 8y agoIf you ever decide to try the manager route again, look me up. My email is in my profile. I do free one on one mentoring for managers, and my business also has a manager training program we run twice a year that really helps people perform better in the role. A lot of studies say some people aren’t “meant to be managers”, but I really believe that’s the exception not the rule. Would be happy to help!
