I've been avoiding people management for years - and about a year ago, I was apprached by a company I've worked with for an exec gig. Dream job that would have shot me forward 10+ years in my career.
I lost it because I haven't managed people since I worked in retail. It's held me back pretty seriously, and I understand now that it's better me leading a team than most of the schmucks I've worked for.
