Random Feature Roadmap for One Program. Several people on social media have denigrated the terms “project manager” and “program manager.” These people claim there is no need for either role in an effective team, especially an agile team because the team can manage its own deliverables.

While I will address return on investment (ROI) considerations in a future post, probably one of the first rules of thumb I have is to use some degree of portfolio thinking and management processes for implementing behavioral science initiatives.

Let us face it, CEOs often isolated themselves from the average employee. (We wrote and challenged them about this seven years ago.) Most still sequester themselves in the penthouse office of the corporate headquarters. They cannot dance with employees because they think they are too busy to engage employees.
