I am a manager and my boss, currently going for partner, is changing cluster as there he has more chances.
He invited me to go with him. Should I go or should I stay in my cluster?what should i consider? Any advice on next steps?

- we are in consulting
- i have very good relationship with my boss’ boss, a partner (hence worried he might not be happy)
- new cluster is very close the one I am in, so no topic change
- do not know new cluster, not sure if it accelerates my senior manager case
