Job Analysis at the Speed of Reality
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
The modern work environment is fluid and dynamic. Keeping accurate and up-to-date job analysis is vital to the health of any organization, whether it is to assess training needs or to know how and where to make cutbacks if needed. Job Analysis at the Speed of Reality is the tool you need to keep your job analysis on track. Gone are the days of job analysis spanning months: the longer an analysis takes to complete, the quicker the data acquired become invalid. Job Analysis at the Speed of Reality details a streamlined, business-oriented job analysis process that is sound enough to be used as the basis for performance-based behavioral change. The benefits to the new process outlined in this book include:
Gathering job data quickly (normally 2-3 hours)
Making job-based training recommendations rapidly
Saving money on costly consultants for job analysis
Using a repeatable, consistent process across an organization
Creating validated task lists that can be used in a variety of ways
The first portion of the book deals with the theory of job analysis, which leads into the Field Book in the second portion which includes a facilitator guide, templates, materials checklist and setup, a glossary of terms and acronym list, a job analysis internet resource guide, references, and a bibliography.
