No, but knowing people and being so persuasive they'll come do shit for you and your team is a skill.

I've had bosses that were very affable and able to talk just anyone around and it truly is a useful skillet

Edit...skillset, even

So many people in IT don't understand this. I'm glad I did a lot of customer service while programming was still just a hobby.

Developing the product or supporting the product dev team in some way (tech support, project managers, etc) is great, but if the company doesn't have people to schmooze other people to give them money, your product doesn't have much financial value.
