At one stage in the corporate ladder, you'd notice this mentoring ladder ends. People lookup to you as the mentor, as the supporter, and you are the Upper Management. Anything above is purely by chance. Mergers and Acquisitions, Brain-Drains, someone in Goldman gets called into Fidelity for a better position, because they hung out one night at a strip-bar.. Aa taravatha, Internal Org-Restructuring, and that department is brought under you as well.. Now you have 400 more people reporting to you, instead of the previous 100. When in the Corporate Ladder, you are entrusted with responsibilities and are expected to show results, not as a foot-soldier / developer, rather a Manager, you are free to put together your team that you trust. You probably will get an incompetent fellow, one or two, and it is up to you to decide their fate, and the fate of the project, and your own fate. If you are way above in the corporate ladder, you are not even expected to hire-and-fire, instead, everything is delegated. "Chill Bro. I told you to let it go!!" - The Budhha. | ||

Agree 100%. Senior management daggara multiple opportunities ravu. Couple of times I can't ante side chestaru. PM challenge is to manage the unknowns, motivate the team and satisfy the client and company. Okkosari time bagundi anni set avvuthayi. okkosari  My advice is you need to have a mentor, guide of supporter who bats for you in upper management. It makes things easy. Of course vademi free ga cheyyadu. Vadiki kavalisina panulu cheyyali.

Lesson # 1. Do not commit to something that you absolutely don't have any control. If you commit to something, keep it in your control. Success and Failure are relative, and they are just ratings, based off some metrics, that can always be cooked. True Success is when a Manager can Make and Break the Fate of people reporting under him/her.

Professional Environment is not the same as a Sporting Team. Your success will solely depend on your work, and team has no involvement in it. As a Manager, it is your regular routine responsibility to understand strengths, weaknesses, motivate, inspire, beg, borrow, steal, divide the work amongst the team members and get it done. 2 yr experience ke naaku Infy lo same-to-same opportunity. I denied taking the responsibility. I told them, that I don't have the adequate experience, so I am not willing to venture into something that I have never been prepared for. It's just that, now I am ready, and a Team Lead experience from 10 years ago would not have changed anything so far. Almost 7 years ago, inko project lo oka Manager ilaane adigithey.. Lead has gone for 3 week vacation, I want you to lead this and complete it ante, for $45 an hour, this is how much work you'll get out of me ani blatant gaa deny chesaa..

grass is greener on the other side. looking at your posts, it will be tough for you in the management position. In that position, you have to take responsibility for things that you dont control. You will get raps from client and senior management for things beyond your personnel capabilities. are you the guy that can take a slap on he wrist easily and handle stress. the story of YCP and TDP in 2014 (AP)- http://goo.gl/zgrYmQ http://goo.gl/gn6XL5 the story of TDP in 2014 (T) - http://goo.gl/nyu1Wu | ||

Jambal... I believe mgmt is not a rocket science..but for that u need to change/control ur hibits instincts...discipline is mandatory..careless atttude never work..your success also depends on the team... When I have 4 years experience, I was a project lead in CTS..I set up a team, did project KT transition. It was a nightmare for me..may be I was too young for that..on top that I got a lagaan team...vallaki 2 days lo kooda complete kaani work naaku 1-2 hours lo ipoddi..ani nenu teesukuni chese vanni after 2 days...nenu vallaki skills upgrade cheyyataniki, chala ways lo try chesa..basically they dont have motivation...oka fresher gaadi chetha work cheyincha galiga kaani 3-4 experience vunna batch chetha cheyincha leka poya...basically they r not fit for that proj..mgr cheppina evvadiki cheppina..live with it annaru kaani no change...

Nice, now we are talking. 1. I did manage a Tech Team, but strictly technical, non-agile environment. Rather, I was the SME for Technology Design for any Upcoming Initiative. A New Enhancement Project, Talk to Jambal before giving a Go-Ahead, just in case, if we miss potential pitfalls or technical debt that we may not be aware of. 2. For Projects that did not come my way, team always ended up with loads of Defects closing-in on deadlines, and PM would always approach me as the Go-To guy for the last 2 weeks before Delivery to close-out Urgent and High Priority Defects. I mean, first-hand nunchi Business Requirements telavvu, SRS, Wires, Visuals ivevi choodaledu...but striclty by gut-feeling, Top Priority Defects close-out chesetodini, on Triage Calls with Business Partners.. So, In one way, Individual Contributor mostly, without any body in the team directly reporting to me, because clearly, I was only a Consultant, and not a FTE. Ippudu 12 months, Lead a Dev Team ante, How would that be possible as a Consultant? "Chill Bro. I told you to let it go!!" - The Budhha. | ||

Jamabale - why do you think it's tough to move to a management role? You need to plan for it. Did you work as an individual contributor through out your career or did you manage any dev team on or offsite? If not, try to do that for next 12 months or so. IMO you will need some domain expertise to complement your tech background to add more value. There are a few pms with just tech background but it would take time for them to see the problem thru business lens. If you are a brilliant techie and love what you are doing, you can become a senior architect and guide dev teams. | ||

What should I do to move-over to Management? I want a team of over 30 people reporting to me. I want to fix deadlines, demand budgets, hire-and-fire people at will. I don't want to associate with any one technology, framework, language etc. I want a spacious office-room, not a cramped cubicle. I want my calendar to appear busy with meetings scheduled through the day, where my word is pivotal and final. I don't want to investigate and fix bugs. I want to demand status and reports about those bugs and defects. Urgent gaa Career lo next stage ki vellaali ante yem cheyaali? "Chill Bro. I told you to let it go!!" - The Budhha. |
