Great writeup I think the chart of responsibility for career development is intriguing I’ve always thought of the manager as more of someone who can support/enable/shed light on career growth, but they aren’t the ones to drive it. That’s on the IC, and that’s the biggest chunk of career growth

I agree, but I think in the very beginning of their careers most people are not equipped to navigate either the sheer range of possibilities laid out in front of them or the complicated processes and unspoken subtexts of their organisations. A good manager's help is crucial in getting started.
