You're the one that makes the impossible calls.
When you lead a team, you're faced with making nearly impossible decisions and compromises: focus on A, and you miss B, C, and D; focus on C, you miss B, and only get part of A and D. And you know that sometime next month, you're going to be asked to do even more. With less. Because reasons. How do you ensure your team (and others) know that accessibility is a priority, and then actually deliver on it and all the other expectations too? And that tension is played on repeat, at volume 11, every single day.
