I have negative desire (yes, less than zero) to be a manager/people leader. I am of the opinion that not everyone should be a manager, nor should management be a route just because someone's been at a company for xyz years.
Being responsible for someone's livelihood, success, growth, etc is not a responsibility I'm itching to have. I also don't think I have the patience necessary for a role of this kind of caliber.
Anyone else felt/feel similar? Have you gone from IC to Manager and loved it? Hated it? How's everyone feeling about being on either side of leadership?
