In times of company upheaval, such as layoffs or restructures, it’s vital for employees to adapt quickly while seeking clarity about their job roles. Engaging in open conversations with management about new responsibilities ensures understanding and prevents misunderstandings that could affect performance evaluations. Additionally, employees must express any concerns regarding training or support needed to succeed in their altered roles. Setting boundaries is essential, particularly as expectations for increased workloads become the norm, to maintain sustainable performance and well-being.
Get the information in writing, if you can, even if it's just a follow-up email you send after a discussion with your boss that says: "Based on our conversation, I understand that my role now includes X, Y, and Z."
If something is unclear, raising concerns early shows you want to ensure you're meeting expectations.
