>The more organisational layers you have between you and the customers - architects, business analysts, and the like - the more disconnected your work will be from the business value.

But what about software middle managers? What's going to happen to them??? Honestly, for over a decade that is how I worked on professional software project. I never saw the need of manager. And software development works better when there are NO middle manger just customer and developers. Of course I'm aware most developers don't care about the business logic.

Seem like management stuff in software is just for show. Corps are just trying to impose their process on software developers, which don't really work.




There is a direct proportion between the number of middle managers and the amount of political hoops and engineer might experience.
