Re:Good techies don't necessarily make good manage (Score 1)

I disagree with that, ElForesto. While people do get promoted if they stick around long enough, management is very reluctant to promote people who perform their technical tasks well. Technical talent is thin enough that when a manager finds someone who is technically savvy, the manager is best served by keeping the talented person as a subordinate for as long as possible. As far as the original question is concerned: Judging by the fact that the poster does not claim to be an ace at any specific technical discipline, I would say that management might be a good career path for a person like that. The vast variety of experience this guy has had might make him very valuable as a manager.
