Though the fact that directors have certain biases from how they working into the role does also highlight an issue with this kind of effect: when you have technical leads or project managers on a big multi-disciplinary project, they will have a natural tendency to favor the areas they are more familiar with, and bias the decision-making and planning of the project around that. It can be difficult to step back and optimize for the project/system as a whole.
