The rest of the world calls this role a Product Manager (happens to be what I do, too). cf. Marissa Mayer, Ev Williams, Joe Kraus, Steve Jobs (on a high level)

cf. Marissa Mayer, Ev Williams, Joe Kraus, Steve Jobs (on a high level), etc.
In Fortune 500 hell we call it 'Business Analyst' (because in bizarro enterprise software world, users and what they do with your software is called 'the business').
In Agile/Scrum they call it the 'Product Owner'.
Point is that someone needs to keep the big picture in mind and serve the interests of the end-user, all while sweating the details from their perspective as well.
- simplegeek 18y agoI've been a part of Scrum teams and I can tell you from a personal experience that Product Owner cannot do this much in a , say, 4-week sprint. I doubt it. At least, during my stay, I never say Product Owners creating specs, talking to QA and etc.
