I’m posting this to add context on the pursuit of career progression, and the perceived benefits such as salary. Jobstats.co.uk have published figures showing average salaries against skillsets. It’s interesting to see that management rates are not that much greater than specialist skills, with SAP being the highest paid skill overall. It goes to show that specialists are gaining in value to organizations. To see it in a different light, a leader who possesses strong technical skills and management skills has a great chance of reaching their desired salary bracket!

Note: The rates are in UK Pounds Sterling, but they should indicate relative rates in other countries.
