One of the truly troubling things to me is just how many people have been calling out damage reports for how long; I'm just trying to compile them to demonstrate that this is neither isolated nor brand-new. The oldest post I have on here specifically discussing the org having a problem with poor management & communication is from 2011. That's over a decade.
I'm not sure why the resistance to clearer communication practices is so enshrined, at this point. So many of the things that chairs/Board bitterly complain about in terms of their jobs could be reduced with better overall organizational structures, so you'd think they'd be willing to at least try -- worst-case scenario, they get a hell of an I Told You So. As-is, I'm unsure if they know what a Project Manager does. I've gotten the impression some people on leadership positions think it's a role that naturally wields executive power, which I'm sure has gotten a good laugh from any Project Managers reading this, or perhaps just a weary sigh.
