Why Technical People Fail as Managers?
Often you see in Software companies that they make technical
people as Managers and over time they realize he is not a good Manager. The
following some of the my observations over the years:-
To be a Development or Test Manager you need to be strong in
Project Management, Development Management, Test Management, Process Management,
People Management, Technical Management, Communication and Stakeholder
Management mainly. But you will notice many of the technical Managers often
does not have all the qualities listed above to play the role and they get
sucked in to lot of technical work daily and lose track of the people and
employee motivation, tuning the strategies, etc. leading to teams frustrated
and losing the bigger picture and release taking longer time impacting schedule or/and quality.
