- danielheath 3y agoThey used to be called Architects, but over time that name came to be associated with losing track of the ground truth.
- kibibu 3y agoEasy mistake to make, but architects design building.
- tracker1 3y agoIf it were like a military thing. They'd likely be an officer, maybe even a chief of some kind.
- irrational 3y agoI’m just imagining going up to somebody in the c-suite and telling them what team I work for and what I do. I guarantee they would have no idea we exist. I once sat next to the manager who is three levels above me at a lunch meeting. She had zero idea who my team was or what we did.
- tracker1 3y agoI'm sure it would be very similar for many generals.
- ykonstant 3y agoI think Leo de Moura was at Microsoft at the time when he was developing the Lean proof assistant. He once commented that he was fairly sure the CEO did not know the language existed or that it was being developed within MS. I found that pretty funny, and probably entirely accurate!

- wjnc 3y agoProbably not what you are looking for, but … management? In old school firms most managers have followed a career path over different departments, learning the ropes and multiple aspects of the business and often company, building a network while growing as a person and in scale/scope. They are supposed to be able to build bridges and transcend the petty politics between teams in order to get things moving.
