Excel ppt data analytics and flaunting business jargons like churning the ocean, from 10k feet above blah blah and great ass kissing skills (especially towards higher management). I really dunno what's so fascinating about it besides the money 🤣🤣 Technology Consulting is far more interesting tbh. But just my thoughts!

"Everybody can be a leader" some say... "Leaders are nurtured not born" say others... True.

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
