Difference between Technical and Management Prudence:
In any technical,production,technical support role your chances of going up or coming down the ladder is completely yours.
In management role your fate will hang in the balance of other persons decision.But why?
Just think
a.)Put yourself into the shoes of a marketing manager.After evaluating so many data,after choosing the right marketing medium,after finding the target audience you fail to get the expected response rate or conversions which implies that your marketing strategy has failed.
b.)You are in sales. you are really too smart in convincing and making people understand things. you have a flair of knowledge in the products you deal with but if customer is not buying your product for any reason which may be as stupid as he is talking and looking more smarter than me,my wife had a boyfriend by the name this guy has,he was starring at the receptionist for whom i had an eye on etc.
c.)Now that after all turbulent times u are the general manager of a company having 15 reporting managers.your role is to forecast the business to the company,being proactive in finding problems,forecasting the units to be sold in the next fiscal,ensuring the business is optimistic even in pessimistic financial weather,planning to the R&D to line up products for next 5 years. If your direct reportees and their reportees are not inline with your vision you will end up nowhere.
A technical person will plan for his future after 3 years,5years.But believe me if you don't bring any revenue to the company this month in sales,if your strategies failed to take off in marketing this quarter and if your vision shattered the position of the company this fiscal you are back home jobless!!!!!!!
If you are someone in any management jobs be proud and happy that you know to tackle any moment of uncertainity, you are capable of turning any situation upside down.
