Why is this bowl so allergic to project management? I often see PMs criticized for doing PjM work, like it's beneath them. But staying close to tech teams, understanding timelines, and making day-to-day decisions makes me a better PM. How else do you know if your asks are feasible, prioritized, or even possible in your timeframes without being near execution? Strategy without delivery is just theory.
