Better Job Descriptions

Better Job Descriptions

On today’s episode we are going to be exploring the Job Description.   You can find a wide range of implementations of job descriptions in companies – from the rigid and formal ones to those companies that just haven’t gotten around to defining them. Those are typically the smaller companies that have grown over time and not felt the need to back fill those. In some rare cases you can even find the company that will forbid the idea strategically to encourage the “empowered employee to make up their own job description”. There are many different thoughts on this – but today we will look at what RPS recommends for an alternative…well…actually prerequisite to the job description that will give the empowering freedom the more modern advocates would argue for while providing some boundaries that would satisfy the traditionalists out there as well.
