Please don´t take it as trolling - but if your higher ups are as competent as you say: why do you need to help them with the big picture ? Shouldn´t they be the ones setting it or at least directing? I am saying this because topics like improvement of performance and reduction technical debt were established as drivers of revenue a long time ago. That is why Amazon optimised the sh*t out of their checkout process and Google (before they were took over by the business types) obsessed about page loading times. Oh coincidentally - that was also the time when major tech companies were run mainly by engineers. Is that why their products used to be so much better? Too many "busyworkers" are now wasting everyone's time by having engineers explain "the big picture" so that they can present it at some meeting and take credit for. And in the process, the products get more entshittified every damn day.
