Where is your focus?
December 1, 2009 @ Better Projects from Craig Brown
As a project manager you have different stakeholders and orientations you need to focus on. It's tough to cover all directions at once and you probably have a preferred approach.
Her post is interesting, as are the comments. The bottom line advice is to know yourself and cultivate capability in both styles.
I'll take a different tack and say be aware of your personal strengths and weaknesses and balance it out with your team. This can mean a PM/BA combo, or a pairing per the consulting mode. You aren't in this alone.
