My answer is " NO" 

Companies are always on the lookout for their next top sales managers, and grooming new talent for a future in management is a constant preoccupation for sales leaders. After all, great sales managers can do more than just make quota – they can elevate the performance of the people around them and boost sales results from the entire team. However, many times, companies discover that it’s not always easy to tell which salespeople are going to be great sales managers. It’s not always as simple as taking your top-producing salespeople and tapping them to be sales managers. Finding great sales managers requires a more complex approach.

Its not a given that a good salesperson can be a good manager. While sales is essential in life being a manager means getting the best out of your team and keep pushing them beyond their limits. Some people are self motivated thus making them good salespeople but not necessarily good managers
