Practice desciption
Traditionally organizations have fully described functions for every level of the organization, managed by the HR department. But those functions have a very fixed description of the responsibilities. There is a more fluid way of working, which is using roles to describe a certain scope of responsibilities. An employee has the ability to modify the set of roles he/she is responsible for, when approved by the team.
