NAME OF POSITION: Hats Manager


PERSON’S SENIOR: VPHR


PURPOSE (The reason why this position exists): 

Every successful Org has an Org Board- on it are everyone’s titles. Each title should have a hat associated with it. Your job is to ensure every post has a fast start hat and hat pack so that every employee can know all facets of their post, as well as anyone else’s on the Org Board. Information should be easily duplicated without much assistance from a senior.


VIEWPOINT (The viewpoint that an employee should have to be successful at the job): 

Hats are probably the most important thing an org can have- without hats or hatting material, nobody will know what they are doing and everyone will be in a state of confusion. That said, it’s vital for you to take the managerial responsibility to get hats at all costs- even if an employee wearing a hat won’t turn one over to you, then you are responsible for creating one.
