I’m starting a new position as an internal IT Prod Manager moving from a BA role. I’m finding I need to also play BA, Scrummaster, and now Technical Project Manager. I assume it’s normal for a PM to wear these many hats?

I welcome any advice on how to successfully perform in this new role…

Not in a highly functioning team, but I’ve seen this in startups or companies undergoing transformation. It really depends what your split is like - what is the majority of your time applied to?

In any case it’s still a great opportunity to transition into a PM role. It’s probably better than being thrown into the deep end. Good luck!

Is this a red flag? Likelihood it actually is lifted in August? If it’s economy based, I would be surprised if by August the market is better not worse.

Thoughts?

Being a technical PM feels like I have less ownership.
All decision making is done in the presence of engineering and data science.

Is this the nature of technical product management or there’s something that I’m not doing right?
