executive management post-technical remote

You’ve been there, you’ve done that. You’re thinking about what’s next for you and wondering if going over to the dark side (management) might be right for you. What should you consider when transitioning from being an individual contributor to a manager or executive? What are the pitfalls you might encounter at different sized companies while learning to work through others? Can you ever go back to writing code? Are there other ways to have a greater impact at work without putting the mechanical keyboard down? Come to a fun session with a developer turned software architect turned executive with an org spanning three continents.
