EDRM Talent Task Matrix defines e-discovery roles

SAINT PAUL, Minn. - July 17, 2013 - PRLog -- Saint Paul, Minnesota - The EDRM Talent Task Matrix (http://www.edrm.net/resources/talent-task-matrix), collaboratively developed by EDRM’s Jobs Project (http://www.edrm.net/23) Team (http://www.edrm.net/10273), is a tool designed to help hiring managers better understand the responsibilities associated with common e-discovery roles. The Matrix maps responsibilities to the EDRM framework, so e-discovery duties associated can be assigned to the appropriate parties.

Since the release of the Matrix in January 2013, there have been more than 1,000 downloads of the Matrix.

The EDRM Jobs Team is interested in learning how the Matrix is used by people responsible for hiring and professional development in their organizations. Specifically, we want to know how the Matrix was used and the results achieved. Stories of successful use of the Matrix will be used to develop case studies to be posted on EDRM.net.

If you have downloaded the Matrix or know of someone who has downloaded the Matrix, please contact Tom Gelbmann or George Socha (drop a note to mail@edrm.net) to share your experiences and results. Note that all responses will be held in confidence.

If your organization has not yet used the Matrix, but intends to do so, please add a brief summary of plans to use the Matrix we would like your comments or recommendations? We would also like to know how we can improve on the matrix to meet your needs.
