???? This looks similar to a few Field Force Effectiveness job descriptions I’ve seen lately, but this one seems broader than that. I can’t wait to get the answer to this riddle!

I do give some guidance in my Clarity workshops about writing job descriptions, as an aspect of Leadership/Clear Expectations. Setting people up for success in their role (day to day expectations) reaches all the way back to defining expectations and success clearly (job description)
