How Company Size Influences the Role

Company size and risk

The technical program manager role isn't always consistent across every company. In fact, in many smaller companies, the role doesn't exist. At least, not yet. As a company grows in size, it grows in complexity. As complexity grows, so does risk.

A technical program manager is usually brought in when scaled execution becomes too much for other roles to handle. Having a technical program manager focus on driving progress, ensuring alignment, creating clarity, and mitigating risk adds immense value to companies as they scale.
