===Job enrichment===
[[Job enrichment]] in organizational development, human resources management, and [[organizational behavior]], is the process of giving the employee a wider and higher level scope of responsibility with increased decision-making authority. This is the opposite of job enlargement, which simply would not involve greater authority.  Instead, it will only have an increased number of duties.<ref>{{cite book |last1=Steers |first1=Richard M. |last2=Porter |first2=Lyman W. |title=Motivation and Work Behavior |date=1991 |publisher=McGraw-Hill |isbn=978-0-07-060956-3 |pages=215, 322, 357, 411–413, 423, 428–441 and 576 }}</ref>

The concept of minimal critical specifications. (Mumford, 2006) states workers should be told what to do but not how to do it. Deciding this should be left to their initiative. She says they can be involved in work groups, matrices and networks. The employee should receive correct objectives but they decide how to achieve these objectives.<ref name=Mumford2006b>{{cite journal |last1=Mumford |first1=Enid |title=The story of socio-technical design: reflections on its successes, failures and potential |journal=Information Systems Journal |date=October 2006 |volume=16 |issue=4 |pages=317–342 |doi=10.1111/j.1365-2575.2006.00221.x |s2cid=6943658 |doi-access=free }}</ref>
