If you really want to move into a leadership role but continue IC-tier code output, find a company with horrendous WLB and try that out. I'm only partially joki

If you really want to move into a leadership role but continue IC-tier code output, find a company with horrendous WLB and try that out.
I'm only partially joking. Plenty of orgs will let you start out as an IC cranking on code all day, and if you're personable enough, you'll be hoisted into leadership roles.
If the job is sufficiently bad, your higher ups will expect you to simultaneously knock it out of the park as a leader while also keeping code output high.
This has happened to me in the past, just be ready to work 12-14 hour days.
