What does a TPM do? Our TPM role is focused on working amongst multiple teams to deliver functionality that those teams are responsible for - The TPM is the “glue” that holds teams together and maintains a bird’s eye view over what those teams are delivering and how those deliverables fit together
This involves two aspects, both equally important
The “Technical” part of “TPM” requires identifying dependencies and technical risks that affect the various teams represented
The “Program Manager” part of “TPM” involves scheduling, managing sprints, creating milestones, and reporting status - The interplay of these two responsibilities means that the TPM not only coordinates schedules, but helps the teams execute against their schedules
