I have seen marginal coders make good managers, and some really fantastic coders as the ooposite. When you lose a good technical person to the management pool, and they do poorly, it is a double whammy. There was an effort at a past employer to acknowledge this phenomenom and reward good technicians beyond the pay scale of management, but it did not last. I thought it was a real insight that they recognized the symptoms, anyway. Why promote a technician to a job they are not suited for, when they are star performers in their current role? JMHO, Dan Rasch - because if the human species concentrated on the really important things in life, there would be a shortage of fishing poles! IBM Certified twice....... but still a couple PTFs away from Nirvana.
