I'm a senior professional with 20 yrs experience in product design, primarily small embedded systems. I have a BSME and MBA (1994) from a good, but not top-tier school. I have strong organizational, technical, and project management skills. I feel I've stalled with my current career and I would like to leverage my skills as a consultant. I have been told I could start as a manager or principal. I don't have any direct IT or coding experience.
Anyone have advice as to whether this change is a good idea at my career stage, what obstacles I face, and good companies/roles to look into? Thanks. |

An asset. I suggest you start at the top with a Project Manager or Principal Architect role.
