OCE.18:4.1 - Establish the transition and the result that must belong to the person

Recover what changes in the person’s work, who needs its result, and why this transition is being considered. Inspect a representative task with the person and the receiving work owner: what must be produced, what judgement is needed, what conditions must be handled and what help will remain available? HCD.1 and HCD.4 supply capability demand and the supported profile. A title, course name or unobserved general trait does not answer those questions.

Keep an emerging work design provisional. OCE.3–6 can supply the organizational concept, contribution relations, position and enabling relations when these are still unresolved. Do not turn an uncertain prospective job into a mandatory learning target. A bounded exploration of the work can be the next useful result.

Distinguish two receiving purposes. An organization needing a competent result may obtain it from an already qualified person, external provider or qualified AI. A person becoming able to perform and organize the work needs evidence of that person’s contribution under the intended support conditions. Compare alternatives against the selected purpose; outsourced success does not satisfy a capability target by relabeling it.
