Foundational Management Training for Engineers - Skills for Climbing from Individual Contributor to Team Leader

There's a monumental paradox about moving from a maker to a manager:

The skills necessary to become a successful engineer (programmer, technician or "maker" of any kind) ARE NOT the same skills necessary to become a successful engineering manager. As an engineer you're evaluated on what you accomplish. But as an engineering manager, you're evaluated on the accomplishments of an entire team. Effective management is about creating a productive environment, equipping your team, and making decisions that allow others to become successful.
