> Sometimes communicating is worth it for interrupting the team. If you need constant updates from someone who knows the subject material, you need to nominate a single person who knows the material to take point on communication. They can help in between communication updates, but they can’t be tasked with leading or owning the work. The worst way to do it is to have a manager who can’t understand the subject material themselves, then let them interrupt the entire team over and over again. Then the team has to stop and educate the manager about what needs to be communicated so they can relay it to someone else. Having non-technical managers relaying information back and forth from the entire team is always a mistake.
