Put the right person in the right job when hiring, promoting or putting someone in charge of a project . Like many things this is easier said than done.
One effective practice is to ask a set of key questions to ensure the right person is matched to the right job.
Key Questions
Before hiring or promoting a person to a position it is helpful to ask these questions:
- Does the job need doing?
- What skills; abilities; knowledge and experiences are needed?
- What tools and authorities are needed to accomplish the job?
- Is the mission of the job clear to all? (The boss, the employee, others in the organization working with this employee.)
