In my case
* meeting with people, yes, on calls, on chats, sometimes even on phone
* “aligning expectations”, yes, because of the next point
* getting consensus, yes, inevitably or how else do we decide what to do and how to do it?
* making slides/decks to communicate that, not anymore, but this is a specific tool of the job, like programming in Java vs in Python.
* thinking about market positioning, no, but this is what only a few people in an organization have agency on.
* etc? Yes, for example don't piss off other people, help custumers using the product, identify new functionalities that could help us deliver a better product, prioritize them and then back to getting consensus.
