Deciding If Your Team Needs a PM

Not every team needs a dedicated PM. Someone is already handling the PM work informally. It's not complex.

Eventually, though, clear ownership becomes unavoidable. Is an individual contributor juggling alignment, communication and strategy alongside their core work? Or is it time to delegate those responsibilities to someone focused entirely on them?

The decision shapes how the team prioritises and executes.
