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!
