This sounds not so much like a valid argument and more a thinly veiled tirade against one bad project manager this person has had during their career. Yes, most by-the-book approaches to agile project management are bad because they are by their very nature not pragmatic towards the reality of a given engineering team or product organization. No, that doesn't give you an excuse to claim that the tens of thousands of individuals (more?) who have made a successful career out of project management are all incompetent snake oil salesmen because there happens to be a certification with a low barrier to entry.
Grow up.
- Robin_Message 8y agoI can see why you'd think that. I just want to put on the record that all of the project managers I've worked with have been extremely competent and a joy to work with. The problem is not the people, it's the methodology that gets in the way of people doing their jobs. The poor implementations of agile that Scrum encourages are what is devaluing project management, not my post.
