In my experience, the difficulty stems from how career progression typically works for managers. Many managers in the technical field will start as an engineer and then continue for 3 - 5 years in which they become competent to handle larger and more complex tasks. After that period of time, the avenue of management opens up and there are opportunities to move all the way up to CEO, a long and lucrative ladder.</p>
