Role Clarity Meeting

30/5/2013

Role clarity is one of the issues we have been faced with due to the high staff turnover levels and it was at this meeting that my reporting and planning manager helped our team clarify our responsibilities for our monthly and quarterly duties. Having this meeting helped us to individually solidify what was expected from us so that no duties were left undone or wastefully duplicated. Another reason for this meeting was due to the lack of resources we currently have so some tasks of leaving employees had to be split, reassigned and due to us temporarily not have a financial controller who approves all our recs and monthly invoices it meant that we had to work around our financial director who is only occasionally in the office so this meant we’d have to manage our time effectively to get tasks done in time for him to sign documents during the time he was in-office.

This once again shows some of the difficulties associated with short-term employees and the constant turnover meant blurred responsibilities and inflexible working arrangements due to the lack of resources.
