What Is Changing
A job title can hide the work that is routine, judgment-heavy, or ready for augmentation. Without task-level design, organizations cannot see where capacity is constrained, where risk sits, or how roles should evolve.
Why It Matters
The issue is not simply technology adoption. Without deliberate work, governance, and accountability design, the organization adds activity without building a repeatable capability that improves outcomes.
The 6xD Reading
Through D5, a work unit makes the work explicit: input, outcome, owner, quality standard, and handoff. Through D2, that clarity enables learning because exceptions and outcomes can improve the next unit of work.
Leadership Takeaway
Map one team’s work as units rather than job titles. For each unit, define the input, output, capability required, human accountability, and appropriate AI assistance.
