I took a transformation lead role in industry a year go. However, my role is de facto program manager lead per internal job title. However, I wear multiple hats. I have a small team of project mgrs and oversea the deployment of transformation initiatives. I also manage the financials (cost savings) for the transformation and report that up to CFO. How do I position this experience for new opportunities? I know the stigma that comes with PMO roles so I’m worried about exit ops? Looking for advice

What are the task/exit differences between a technical program manager and a non-tech program manager? In a program manager role right now and it‘s very high level, don’t have many individual contributor tasks (which I’d prefer given I’d say I only have 3 YOE). Looking at TPM reqs though, it seems there’s a heavier emphasis on development process knowledge and compsci experience more so than just project management skills. Is this because being a TPM leads into more product mgmt/developer roles?
