Final Words
Tweetable Quotes:
“That interest to give people a sense of uniqueness through title or through a new job you're adding, really clashes with the harmonization of the architecture of the jobs that need to have some way of being compared internally.” - Ian Cook
“The more we try to use data, the more we want to standardize it, yet the more we want to have things proliferate, the more it becomes differentiated… there’s no one right answer.” - Dino Zincarini
“The faster you think about it, come up with a plan or a strategy and maybe even the technology to support this divergence in the branding of jobs and the standardization… the sooner you can come up with a plan on how you’re going to manage that - the better.” - Dino Zincarini
