Job design is an important aspect of job satisfaction and motivating employees to maximize productivity. This job design exercise examines important characteristics including skill variety, task identity, task significance, task autonomy, and job feedback, as found in the job characteristics model. Students often struggle to visualize the components of job characteristics theory in many organizational behavior classes. This exercise offers a short, anonymous, but biographical case that examines job characteristics theory in a practical setting. Teaching notes and recommended solutions to the discussion questions are provided as well as a final decision point for the focal entity, Linda Harmon at Veritas Oversite Corp. Additional guidelines are provided in the teaching notes for using the case in-class and for out-of-class assignments.
