When you set clear roles, everyone knows what is expected of them.

A company needs to be well organized for it to flourish, this includes the different duties for each job position to be well defined so members are participating where and when they are needed. Team members are more productive when their roles and duties are clearly defined. There is less effort wasted; there is less misunderstanding, disappointment, and frustration. When roles and duties are clearly defined, team members develop to see beyond their own specific positions and learn to appreciate, respect, and cherish one another’s unique contributions. It is critical for each team member to understand that the overall performance of the team is a result of shared accountability and ownership.
I have worked as an assistant manager for a company where the duties of each role were not clearly defined, as a result I ended up doing a lot of the managers work and absorbing some of the other employees work. Once I was promoted to manager I was able to collaborate with the new assistant manager to analyze and delegate tasks for the different roles. As a result the employees were able to streamline their tasks, and we were all able to go home earlier at the end of each day boosting employee morale.

Edward Jones uses strategic HR management, aligning HR policies with the organizations’ objectives as discussed in the lecture. Edward Jones chief HR officer Suzan McDaniel is an exemplary leader in HR, this is seen through her work in overseeing the Enterprise Leadership Team, which is responsible for providing advice and counsel to the managing partner in helping the firm grow its impact and create value for clients, colleagues, and communities today and in the future (Edward Jones, 2020). Baird is an employee-owned financial services company; they have been rated among the top Fortune 100 companies to work for and have high employee satisfaction rates, employees state the workplace is fair in a high care/high expectations environment. In 2018 Baird’s chief HR executive Leslie Dixon received an inaugural Great Place to Work for All Leadership Award and was honored with being awarded Best Workplaces for Women in conjunction with Baird, exemplifying how strong their HRM really is (Marianne Foster, 2018). Southern Ohio Medical Center has a high employee satisfaction rate, employees are given multiple opportunities to give ideas and feedback and everyone is important no matter their position. SOMC follows the guidelines of The Joint Commission, the nation’s predominant standards-setting body in health care, and SOMC has received top honors from that organization for meeting standards, striving for the highest standard of care and employee satisfaction (SOMC, N.A.). Evidence-based management as discussed in the lecture, uses data, facts, analytics, case studies, and more to support HR management decisions/ideas. This form of HRM is what I identify with most, as it is based on facts rather than emotions which I think can be a challenging factor when making the “right” decision as an HRM.
