How do you feel about job descriptions? Are they ever accurate? What if we took a different approach?

People want to know the expectations of how to perform their job and what they’re responsible for. Traditional lists of bullet points don’t adequately cover how someone’s job is truly done. Usually, people's jobs are much more full and robust than that. Let’s get together in September and discuss this !!

The topic for the September HR Roundtable is – “Roles & Responsibilities – a new approach to jobs !!”

Please note that we’re going to meet on Tuesday, 9/2/25 from 8:30am to 9:30am at Scarlet Oaks. (directions are below.) We will meet in our normal place in the Annex (right next to the cafeteria).

I know that the September Roundtable is the day after Labor Day. We’ve met on this day for years, and we have a great turnout.

Please take a moment to RSVP to let me know if you plan to attend the Roundtable next month by emailing me at - sbrowne@larosas.com. Consider it part of your role’s expectations to respond !! Hope to see you there.

Thanks – Steve

• The “dress” for the Roundtable is business casual. We’re not very formal and you’ll be fine however you dress. It’s more important to have you come and attend the forum.
