- I am not a reluctant ENTJ, but a frustrated one.
- I might be happier, more sucessful and more productive as
- a manager. But how does one become a manager? It seems to
- me to be very difficult to exhibit managerial skills unless
- you are already in charge of something. If you are not
- particularly enamored of your present (non-managerial) task,
- you will never be promoted to manage anything. This seems
- particularly true in scientific fields; the most gifted
- scientists get promoted (which they deserve), but they
- not necessarily good managers.
-
- So what is the way out of this dilemma? Any other ENTJ's
- feel this way?
