>>> It gives non-technical managers extra visibility at the cost of speed and agility. Keen observation. Often times these situations are just self-inflicted wounds on the part of devs too. I have worked with many devs that have had a habit of keeping stakeholders and coworkers in the dark just because they feel like they are too important to be bothered/be held accountable. I know what I'm in for if a project management or glass house CIO is all of the sudden needed, so my top priority is always to primarily earn the trust of business stakeholders and to be as honest as possible.
