I think another important trait of good managers is being able to manage up. Sometimes ICs need a shield to protect them from higher levels of management like a micromanaging director. A manager’s ability to report information and calm the leadership above him instead of letting it all pass through to the ICs can really increase team productivity and earn the respect of their direct reports.
Wasn’t this guy PiP happy at Amazon? Wasn’t he gleefully firing people?

He wasn't 'gleefully' firing people. He was just firing people, as part of his job.
Insightful!
Tech leads are motivated by being responsible for tech. Managers are motivated by being responsible for people. If you don't like dealing with people and people issues, stick to an ic role.
