If you’re looking for a program manager, then that means you’re looking for someone to manage a project portfolio. A program manager is just that, a person who is responsible for managing several projects at once, and they might even have to manage many programs.

Sometimes, it's the simplest ideas that are the most effective. In the IT production control world, "bubble charts" are a common artifice to show the workflow of various scripts, user/operator interactions, and programs that have to run in sequence, or with dependencies, or a particular time (scheduler), or "on demand".

The benefits are clear, but, for me, one jumps out: I can get the right resource for my team, wherever they happen to be based.

A few years ago, a fellow banking consultant told me how he requested customer data when he started his training in the 1960s. He would fill in an application and submit it to his data management colleagues. The next day, the required customer file would be on his desk. Today, data processing is a bit different. You know, digitization and such. Software helps us process more data in an ever shorter time period, all while making it flexibly available.
