Before you go there, understand that there are a lot of "engineers" that only know / understand 10 or 15 year old technology because that is what is being taught in colleges.

I have seen many so called computer and network engineers resumes come across my desk that don't have the skills required to hit the ground running. While the people are trainable, I do not have budgets nor the can I afford the time loss to get these people up to speed.

Oh, and I hold the two top certifications in my field of computer network security and continue to deliver for Fortune 200 companies in addition to running a team of 19 engineers. I am most certainly NOT an HR hiring manager.

Why would a smart engineer want to work for you? In a few years, when looking for another job, he will have the same skill set as now and experience in doing "more of the same." Likely, unemployable.

With that risk adverse / zero-investment mindset, I'd say you are definitely more of an administrator, and a lot LESS of a Businessman/person or Leader.
