I wouldn’t think those skill sets are easily transferable seeing how much a director is in charge of. Like how did so many of the actors in The Office, also direct episodes? Bonus: does someone else stand in as director when you’re acting in a scene that you’re the director of that entire project?

The skills are complementary… both require an artistic interpretation of material to tell a story. Actors tend to be overall artistic/creative types. And in some ways, it’s no different than an accountant becoming an accounting manager or a programmer becoming a team lead, etc. using skills to then manage those with similar skills.
