Comment on Great engineering teams focus on milestones instead of projects

Comments

If we stick to strict Project Management definitions, milestones are within a project.

A program (representing a strategic goal) can contain multiple projects big and small. Perhaps the author wants to convey programs which map to company or divisions strategic initiatives.

Which would be represented in OKRs. Honestly this article feels like using project management definitions without understanding where they are coming from.

I’m the author. No, not intending programs. Milestones are smaller than projects in my definition.
