Career Development:  What It Really Means to be a Manager, Director, or VP - Kellblog

Good overview of the differences in accountability between different levels of roles. This mostly focuses on the VP level and how a leader at that level needs to think about their ownership responsibilities.

The VP’s job is to get the right answer. They are the functional expert. No one on the team knows their function better than they do. And even if someone did, they are still playing the VP of function role and it’s their job – and no one else’s — to get the right answer.

I also love the line about directors. " I love strong directors. They get shit done." I'd upvote that comment all day long!
