Lead Technical Professionals
Running a technical organization is more than managing technology.
Technology is transforming the role of executives and people managers
as completely as it has transformed the business landscape.
To most technical professionals, upward mobility in the management
hierarchy is far less important than other motivating factors. Frequently,
engineers and scientists find themselves frustrated by the “obstacles”
of management and the way business is organized.
