Not true. A person can manage maybe 10 other people max. Beyond that, you start delegating.
So really there's no practical difference between a company of 11 people and a company of 11000 people from a management perspective.
The technological/practical concerns you'll be dealing with are totally different, of course, but as far as 'people management' stuff goes, there's little difference.
- cosmodisk 7y agoI agree with the part about the number of people being managed, however usually there's a huge difference in management structure. For instance we have some standard big corp and its tech department. So you'd have a developer,senior developer,tech lead, some sort of team manager.Then the team manager would be reporting to the person that runs the particular division or department. The head of the department would report to some VP who would eventually report to the CTO. In a small company that'd be like developer=> CTO. That "Chief",in which case it loses the purpose.
