A lot of PMs take this for granted as not really impact but the complexity of aligning so many people in figuring out how to follow regulations is a gold mine
Enlightening article. But Gantt charts were usually always be n the domain of project managers. In my experience product managers focused less on busy work like acting like scrum masters, and more focused on engagement metrics, KPIs, RICE framework, customer journey mapping, roadmapping. But, have become quite focused lately on acting like a glorified project manager - aka feature manager.
Traditionally, in that domain, for sure. At the companies I have worked in, the value added for many project managers is often on the low side, leaving whoever oversees driving the initiative forward incorporating timeline creation into their day-to-day.
Like most of these concepts, it really varies by org.
It's a good question to hypothesize on. With a lot of the traditional needs from PM's going away, I think there will still be needs to have someone to "herd the cats" if you will. Someone who can still communicate and navigate the people things - politics, relationships with engineers - some of things AI won't be able to effectively do for a while.
+100 on the regulations.

Regulations are definitely on the boring side of the industry. Keeping your job and company a float, however, is pretty cool.

Yeah - that’s quite true. Where do you believe the future will lead us to? I have my own theories, but keen to hear yours beyond what you’ve written.
