THE EIGHT DIMENSIONS
Role problems are rarely only task problems.
Role clarity
Consider tasks, responsibilities and expectations around your position.
Mandate clarity
Consider explicit goals, mandate and how success is expected to be judged.
Scope of responsibility
Consider accountability for results, people, budget and reputation.
Decision influence
Distinguish formal decision rights from informal influence.
Expectation pressure
Consider expectations from managers, team members, peers, clients and other relevant groups.
Conflicting expectations
Look for competing goals, different priorities and incompatible role assumptions.
Boundary clarity
Consider taking over other people's work, escalation and deliberate boundaries.
Room to shape
Consider freedom around priorities, processes, decisions and your own leadership impulses.
