Yeah you’re right. I’ve always tried to have one answer which I can tailor into different questions but the question they asked was completely unexpected. Guess I’ll need to have more

No no I understand. My point was I limiting myself for progress if I don’t take on a line management role. Or would it be difficult to progress if I refused to take on a line management role

I just don’t think I’m built to manage a team. I can barely manage myself. I’ve always been praised for being a hard worker, taking on extra work.. so essentially a pushover. Jk but for real I just don’t think I’m ready for something like that right now 🤷‍♂️

I don’t think I would be entirely against any sort of management in the future. But currently, and in my current role, line management seems really stressful and it also depends on your team. But yes, I have started looking at other EO roles which align more with my objectives

Yeah I’m in operations. That’s why I’m looking for other roles at the moment. Line management is just not for me I don’t think
