Anthropic Product Head: PM Alignment Role Is Obsolete
Angela Jiang states the 'getting everyone aligned' aspect of product management is gone, signaling a shift in team dynamics.
●Builder Action:Developers may find their product managers less involved in day-to-day alignment meetings and more focused on defining clear strategic goals. Expect more autonomy in execution, but ensure your team's technical direction aligns with the overarching product vision. This shift might also mean PMs have deeper technical insights or rely more heavily on senior engineers for architectural alignment.
