When looking inward at myself and asking if I would be a better suited in upper management or middle management, I would say that it is a tough decision. However, I would have to choose upper management because I believe that I am more in tune with seeing the bigger picture and communicating to others our companies potential. I strongly believe that though communicating effectively to everyone in the organization, staff and management alike, where I would like to see the company in the near future, I could make a most effectively express my skillset for the better. I also find that this type of strategic thinking is both very challenging and rewarding when your vision comes to life and results in a successful, driven work environment. I would also like to say that I am in strong agreeance with Scott when he states above that the best upper managers spend some time as middle managers to get a good feel for all aspects of the company before being able to effectively guide the entire organization in upper management. However, choosing just one option, I would be much more adept in an upper management environment once I gained a strong background in the current culture and direction of the company.
