Tech Management matters more on
They dont look at the element of people as they are busy in solving technical / expertise in that field
Advice to upcoming leaders
Have the fire to excel
People is the key element - Drive people, not performance.
Employee satisfaction is the only element, if you keep them happy (hiring right one, keeping them motivated) all your problems are solved

Team Management
Anybody who comes to office should psychologically come happily thinking he is coming to a college, a short 5 - 10 minute meeting with entire team, which i urge all my managers to do, make them shout if they get an appreciation email, interact, create competition amongst them, stack rank them.

Handling of Mess with employees
An entire team with BE and BTEch graduates were put in a support project and they did not want to work resulting in poor productivity, bad VOC and client escalations. I made a quick plan of moving them to development projects and replaced them all with Non-engineering people within 6 months.
View point on current IT system and suggestions
1) Hiring - Right candidate for the right job (From entry level)
Where to hire, (remember to hire the best from mid-yorker colleges, hired horse never tires)
2) Policies and Procedures Simplification
3) Bonding, motivation, show employees whats there for them
4) Open door policy and transparency

Changing trends in Tech field
The Future will be driven by emotion
Convergence (transform every aspect of the IT industry) - and divergence
Constant Focus on Customer needs
Innovation
Cash in hand!
Hire a manager who has become a manager from role ZERO.
I feel too many Managers would come with a bookish knowledge with no people aspect, it can make things better (if the crowd is fine) or worse if they dont like it..
My feel - people will just come and work as we go on, it wont matter.
