Great roles don't happen by accident. They're designed to work.

Unclear responsibilities. Overlapping accountabilities. Decisions nobody seems authorized to make. Sound familiar?

When roles are poorly defined, even capable people struggle to deliver their best work. Confusion grows, work falls between the cracks, and teams spend more time clarifying responsibilities than getting things done.

Designing Roles That Work shows you how to change that.

This practical guide takes you beyond traditional job descriptions to create role profiles that reflect how work actually gets done. It brings together accountability, decision making authority, capability requirements and the connections between roles in one clear, structured approach.

Inside, you'll discover how to:

• Define meaningful accountabilities instead of simply listing tasks.
• Clarify decision making authority and responsibility.
• Identify the capabilities people need to succeed.
• Design roles that work effectively across teams and functions.
• Create accurate, practical job profiles using structured methods, examples and ready to use tools.
• Review and adapt roles as organizational needs change.

Whether you're an HR professional, manager, organizational designer or business leader, this book gives you the methods and tools to turn role confusion into clarity.

Less ambiguity. Better accountability. Roles that actually work.
