There's a monumental paradox about moving from a maker to a manager:
The skills necessary to become a successful engineer (programmer, technician, or "maker" of any kind) ARE NOT the same skills necessary to become a successful engineering manager. As an engineer, you're evaluated on what you accomplish. But as an engineering manager, you're evaluated on the accomplishments of an entire team. Effective management is about creating a productive environment, equipping your team, and making decisions that allow others to become successful.
This skill-set difference has become a stumbling block for countless makers aspiring to take managerial roles. They either find themselves getting repeatedly passed up for promotions or if they move into a leadership role, they’re ineffective and end up getting demoted.
If you are transitioning from Tech IC to Tech Manager, or from any individual contributor role into a leadership position, then this is the class for you.
In this course "From Maker to Manager: 10 Strategies to Advance Your Career", you will learn about each of the 10 key areas you need to succeed in management. You will learn key concepts and strategies from the following areas:
