I have 9 years of software development experience in the Industry. Currently doing my masters from KTH and looking for freelance work
For me, the most challenging part was doing performance evaluations among different engineers where some was doing really amazing stuff but they weren't good at selling while others weren't doing anything impressive but selling it very smartly. Being manager, doing code reviews, going through ticket managers and other tools you can see this who is what and how much but you can barely influence 360 reviews.
On another occasion, it really got out of hands, when I was working on totally independent team and my people working on so many different teams. Being the guys, you gotta know ins/outs of all these projects going on while not loosing track of yours
I worked for a company where a lot of ICs were also assigned reportes but they weren't doing full time management. They were just interacting with their coach/mentor, doing weekly meetings and stuff. I believe transition from developer to Lead to Manager is smooth than becoming manager and getting away from coding and doing mgmt just overnight.
Daily 2-3 articles of reading of papers e.g. guardian, ny times, science journals
