Manager or IC Career Path

With a typical organisational structure as you climb the ranks you need to change your career from being a maker, an individual contributor on a team, to a manager, looking after other people.

In this forum, we will explore the alternative ways that companies are offering more career options to people and how they can avoid the career change progression if they want to.
