Organization Change - Resumes And Subject Matter Experts
The process of organization change is always difficult. It needs the efforts of a responsible change team, executive support, and meticulous planning. A resume is supposed to provide a snapshot of all of a person’s relevant training and work experience. This is unfortunate, because resumes are generally a poor indicator of the real subject matter expertise of a person needed for organization change, in spite of all the focus given to them in business. If you look at a couple of resumes and both people have 5 years experience and both have graduate degrees in the subject, then it could be that both would make a good subject matter expert. In practice, though, candidate A may have been going through the motions enough to be passably competent while candidate B has been living and breathing the business since day one. If this is the case, most change teams would opt for the second candidate.
