Know when a PM's backlog is weak because of skill gaps versus structural constraints versus unclear agency priorities, and respond differently to each. * Ability to hold standards while staying pragmatic. Maintain universal craft expectations while acknowledging that agencies at different maturity levels need different kinds of support. Good standards bend to context without breaking. * Ability to build a genuine community. Create conditions where PMs across pods feel connected to a discipline, share failures without fear, and invest in each other's growth. This is the kind of professional community that USDR's talent work describes as making government a destination for skilled practitioners. * Ability to give credible craft feedback to technology directors and product directors who may have no PM background themselves. Make performance advisory useful rather than abstract.
