Должен ли PM оценивать estimation команды?

Answer from AI

The PM should not independently evaluate the team's tasks, as they usually lack a deep technical understanding of the implementation details. The main role of the PM is to coordinate the process, ensure communication, and assist with prioritization.

Estimation should come from the performers — developers, testers, and other specialists who will directly carry out the work. This increases the accuracy of estimates and the team's responsibility.

The PM can:

  • Help organize the estimation process (for example, plan meetings for estimation).
  • Monitor adherence to deadlines and adjust plans based on the received estimates.
  • Use estimates to build a roadmap and plan releases.

Thus, the PM does not directly evaluate tasks but assesses the team's estimates and helps manage them.
