Our company recently went through a reorg and we ended up with a weird set of people / projects on our team.
People:
* a manager that will supposedly act like a product owner
* two project managers (I'm one of them) that will each act like some hybrid of pm and scrum master
* four developers
Projects:
* two different client portfolios with various projects - one that i am managing and one that the other pm is managing
* miscellaneous smaller projects that come in from time to time
I'm really used to owning the well-being of the development team and organizing the work, but now we're expected to work as one larger team and I'm not sure how that can work with 2 PMs - it's like having two captains on a team.
I also don't know how we can organize ceremonies when there are two separate large client portfolios. I'm wary of longer sprint planning meetings with large portions where content isn't applicable to half the people...
Any immediate thoughts from anyone? I have to admit I'm a bit sour on the decision to put two PMs on one team, but I'm happy to be wrong about that being a bad thing...
