Job titles are not mere formalities; they're vital for defining roles and responsibilities within your business. They provide clarity for your team and play a significant role in shaping how your employees are perceived, both inside and outside your organization.

A well-crafted job title aligns with your company values and culture, making it an essential branding tool. Many companies take this as an opportunity to create overly creative or vague titles; I'll share why you should avoid this and how you can create clear titles instead!
