I am my own enemy? ;-)

I'm using "Program Management" not in the PMP sense of the term - but 
running a program (like a partner program, for example).  I understand 
that PMP defines "Program Management" as essentially "managing a bunch of 
little interrelated projects".  In the sense of program management that 
I'm using, there's actually very little project management.
