Does anyone have any good tips for a fellow PgM whose team leads think that they don’t need program management but clearly do? Cross functional partners working with the team are asking for better organization and communication but the team is unwilling to hear feedback or make changes

You might have already tried this but maybe frame the need with a business use case. I’ve learned that a lot of folks think program management is micromanaging and following them around with a clip board when really it’s necessary operations. Or as questions “out of curiosity” such as “who owns cross-department strategic alignment?” “Who has the holistic view of how the company executed on our OKRs across departments?” “What is our company-wide planning timeline and dependencies?”

Hope this was helpful.

So something crazy happened to me last week. I was at the airport, and as usual on call after call. The check in line was going ridiculously slowly and at some point turned threw my hands up in frustration while looking around to find another place to check in. In doing so, I catch the eye of the behind me. He smiles and says something. I just sort of nod and carry on with my call. After that, he keeps trying to talk to me, eventually I got to the check, say bye and leave. At security… tbc

Come on folks.

Do you seriously think you can shame Republicans out of fetishizing guns? Millions of senseless deaths haven't changed their minds yet, and this isn't going to be any different.

For those that work at an agency: what does your team structure look like? As UX or UI contributors are you on a creative team, product, something else? And I'm curious about reporting and management structure as well.

Currently in NYC. I have a good book, but no partner. I was told I won't be able to find a decent job without a partner. True?
