It depends what you mean by 'career in archaeology' really doesn't it. It is still possible to get quite far as a specialist of one sort or another without having to manage large sums of money or teams of people. Generally though, management skills and training among contractors and consultants are lamentable in my experience: relying solely on aptitude and a desire for self-improvement. Gilraen, it sounds like you're working for one of the better organisations in this respect.
