Curiously, the author doesn't bother to categories difficult executives. He exhibits a willingness to criticize everyone except for the ones far above him.

The rest of his advice reads pretty poorly. He claims that non-technical managers don't hurt projects and that the remediation is just for developers to not rely on them to arbite technical disputes. At this point in my management career, I've witnessed several non-technical managers unknowingly misrepresent their teams capability, causing projects to fail without developer meddling.

I wouldn't take this website seriously.
