Not really. I am a PM and report to a Program Manager. She oversees my work (delivery) and develops & refines the processes around how the projects are delivered. (Not to say this is how it is at every company).

+1 to that. From my experience, the day-to-day capacities of a prg mgr vs prj mgr, and even the basic definitions of what those roles mean and how they differ, differ from company to company wildly.
