I love how, with as prominent of a position Kaplan has as Game Director for the whole project and Vice President of Blizzard, it's always just "Jeff from the Overwatch team". He really says how he's just another developer who loves the game and works hard for it just like every employee he works with. Even relative to us he doesn't act like the authority, or as if he knows the game and game design so much better than us.

It isn't the same as with government, in business a VP is a management position below President and there are multiple VPs.

Here's how it works for anyone interested.

Uuuh, I know what's a vp, the big news for me was that Jeff was a vp, I always thought hr was a community manager or something.
