From one of today's most influential HR experts, The End of the Job Description introduces a revolutionary new approach to work roles. As if that weren't enough, Tim Baker also provides you with the performance indicators and measurements you'll need to establish this re-invention of work within your organization! -Marshall Goldsmith, author of the New York Times and Wallstreet Journal #1 Best Seller Triggers In his drive to bring about strategic and operational change in traditional HR management tools, Tim Baker now takes a look at job descriptions. I especially like his idea to focus on performance by characterizing the work as a series of roles, each with its own set of KPIs. It makes sense to re-shape this key document so that it is comprehensive and serves its many purposes well. The book includes plenty of detail that can help readers to implement change. -Rosanna Nadeau, Principal/Consultant, PRISM PERSPECTIVES GROUP LLC 'Tim Baker offers an important shift in thinking about how organizations define the behaviors their people need to succeed. Tim gives readers a practical toolkit for aligning behaviors with the vision, mission and values of a business, and then developing, refining and quantifying the skills that matter. These simple truths can become a powerful step change for businesses.' -Ian Hamilton, Managing Director, Carroll Consulting Group
