Anyone here who (or know someone) has transitioned from FDD to PE in UK? Any tips on how to go about it in terms what gaps might I face if I want to do that switch / is it worth it ? Any other potential workstreams FDD professionals switch to?
For background - FDD 7 years exp in a Big4 (India + UK), might well move to Manager in next 6 months. Currently in my early 30s.

How many people get promoted to S1 from A2? Didn’t do well in A1.

But... this is also true: "not everybody wants to be a leader" (whether they can or can't be). It is a fairly common practice in organizations with traditional career management structures for people to "be promoted" into leadership roles as the "end steps of the corporate ladder" that was climbed doing technical work. And, unfortunately, this doesn't work all the time
