Looks like it&#x27;s marketing material for a &quot;development agency&quot;, so probably a few non-technical salesmen and managers that act as a middleman between the client and a bodyshop.<p>&gt; We call them the “CEO of the project” as they’re ultimately responsible for connecting the dots to make sure goals are hit in a timely manner as well as for problem-solving when an issue surfaces.<p>PM managing devs is a red flag.

Ahh, yes, what in the world would we do with the barely technical product manager filled with delusions of grandeur trying to re-invent the wheel and &quot;revolutionize&quot; the UX with every release.

It’s worth remembering that almost none of the world’s most used apps&#x2F;websites had a team like this when they were created.
