 | | Rotation programs are more common in the development of top executives but there are also many reasons to use them for technical and new hire positions. |  | | Often rotations end up in a department where there are no plans for their development. |  | | Include rotations into the business functions which can help technical people develop a broader understanding of the business, our strategy, the needs of our customers and where the company is headed. |

| | Retaining the Best Talent for Software Development > Compensation Philosophy |
 | | Rotation to another development organization is possible, but typically this is useful only if there's a prototyping or other short-term development opportunity available. |  | | More often, however, the software engineer learns that every job has its pluses and minuses, and that he or she really does want to remain in a software development organization. |  | | While a job rotation program may seem like a lot of work to implement, the rewards, especially in terms of retention, can be great. |

 | | Job rotation is believed to boost innovation by enabling workers to apply knowledge of one task to others. |  | | An example of this flexible approach is job rotation or cross-training, that is, training employees in a range of tasks and rotating them through different positions |  | | Greater variety and a wide range of tasks make work more interesting and challenging. |

 | | Job enrichment is usually of greatest value when at least some of the added tasks or responsibilities require greater use of the worker's capabilities, such as creativity, pattern recognition, interpersonal communication, or problem-solving. |  | | Machines should be used for those tasks which it does best, and humans used for those that humans do best. |  | | A major consideration in job content design is the degree of task specialization versus task variety |

 | | In leadership development, an approach to management development is job rotation where an individual is moved through a schedule of assignments designed to give him or her a breadth of exposure to the entire operation. |  | | This level of rotation is frequently the most contentious. |  | | In many cases senior managers seem unwilling to risk instability in their units by moving qualified people from jobs where the lower level manager is being successful and reflecting positively on the actions of the senior manager. |
