    Good ones are pretty rare and good program managers are even rarer.

    What they should do, and what most actually do, are different things.

    Project managers must be great with humans and communication. If they are not, then they just can’t be effective.

      Oooh. Okay yeah, that explains it. Communication is the number one thing that most people struggle with. I’m constantly pestering my bosses about communicating even slightly important information that could affect me a rung down. Then even when it is reported it isn’t effective or concise, or if it is concise it’s unclear.

      Okay. I’m beginning to get a grasp on it.
