I don't know if this suits you but I'm moving towards a training roll. I've been a tech then team leader for a long time and the writing is on the wall IMO.

Yes, Lots of off shoring and the guys in India (China for projects management) work hard but honestly at times you have to ask yourself if the whole off shoring thing is really the best way to go.
For day to day stuff then yes it works but when something breaks you always need a good tech on the ground.
