WHAT'S YOUR TITLE?
Question: Why are titles changing so much nowadays. I cannot figure out what anyone really does. "Producer" is now "Experience Designer" and "Account Executive" aka "Salesperson" is "Manager of Customer Experience". I could go on as some of them are really taking some left turns. Thoughts please? Are we just getting a bit too trendy and what's next?

6 年So true. My title has changed four times in my current role. Each time it doesn’t begin to help anyone understand what my colleagues and I really do. And it seems as though the more “flashy” it is, the less it’s understood.

6 年Great topic - would also add in titles that do not match work experience or skill level - ie "Director" with 1-2 years of experience requested and "Supervisor" with 8-10 years experience requested. This seems to vary drastically with NPO vs. corporate. Would be great to set a common language. #eventprofs
