Description
Master the Jobs-to-be-Done framework for critical talent decisions. Whether hiring, planning succession, or staffing key initiatives, learn to define roles with specific, measurable outcomes that identify the right talent.
WHAT ARE JOBS-TO-BE-DONE?
JTBD defines the 3-5 key actions a person in a critical role must perform to deliver value. Unlike generic job
descriptions, JTBD statements are:
• Bespoke to your specific strategic needs
• Focused on measurable outcomes (WHAT, HOW MUCH, WHEN)
• Specific enough to answer: "Did the job get done well?"
• Designed to identify people with the right experience
USE JTBD FOR:
External Hiring - Define critical roles to attract the right candidates
Succession Planning - Identify who internally can step into key positions
Key Initiatives - Select the right person to lead strategic projects

THE FRAMEWORK
JTBD teaches three essential elements:
1. WHAT - Specific work (not generic responsibilities)
2. HOW MUCH - Measurable outcomes (quantifiable results)
3. WHEN - Concrete deadlines (typically 3-5 years)
Example:
Generic: "Lead sales team and increase revenue"
Bespoke JTBD: "Build and scale inside sales team from 5 to 20 reps, increasing enterprise revenue from $12M to $35M ARR by Q4 2028"

THE CRITICAL DIFFERENCE
Generic descriptions don't help. JTBD statements are so specific they reveal exactly who has the right
experience—whether hiring externally, promoting internally, or selecting someone for a key initiative.
If you can find it on Google, it's not a JTBD.
