My brother is a phenomenal teacher. We've both spent about 20 years in our respective careers, and I tell him all the time he'd make a most amazing administrator or education policy-maker. His response, "No thanks. Those are positions where people go to die." He's not wrong, but also not fully right. In our own industries, we need to celebrate that path a bit more and openly welcome practitioners into those leadership roles — as people who can affect real change, not as end-of-career pathways.
