Question about Managing Partner and Title

Just curious how you would list Managing Partner and your role/title or would you just keep managing partner. Right now I have Managing Partner | Sales Engineer.

I would personally just leave it as a Managing Partner, or Managing Director, I wouldn't list "sales engineer". Think when you expand, you will hire Sales Engineer so I see it as a different title.

Not so sure that it matters, but I think the question is do you want to be seen as specializing in a particular area of the business or not?
And maybe how your partners are listing their titles. If you go into a big meeting with a possible client and your other partners, if the other partners business cards give more specialized titles they might be seen as go-to's for those areas and you may not. Even when you say "and I handle sales" will they remember that in 3 weeks when they're looking at all your business cards to see which of you to call.
That's just a thought, though. In general I think it makes very little difference and you should probably just use what makes you smile!

Thanks for chiming in both of you. Going with just managing partner. No reason to list anything else......
Follow up. As we work through these RFP's I have a feeling I will be changing my role as needed. Sales Engineer, PM, etc....
