My current workplace is one that encourages people to choose their own journey in their working career. This means that on an annual basis we have a review, we have a look at our strengths, we have a look at our weaknesses, what can be done to close those gaps and then to go with it where we are in our careers, where we ultimately want to end up, and how we can best support people to transition to their end goal in the current environment and what outside help we can be found if the resources don't exist at the workplace to setup that sort of environment where people are encouraged to learn and grow.
From the outset, they encourage people to explore what they want to, and they also state that its fine to continue doing what you do if that's what you want to do.
I'd like to explore the remote operation of a robotic substitute as part of income sharing scheme, I'll be based in Fiji!

Actually one of the things that could makes sense to me about how we're going at the moment is that it's all about experimentation and trying folks in multiple roles before we nail down regular positions.
"One soldier out-one in" is much easier if the replacements can fill multiple roles at a pinch.
Some are learning at senior level, others like McKay and Kerr are being given extended time at the lower level, and others are getting a mix.
If that's the game he's playing it makes Bolton one cool customer because you tread a fine line between performance and development.
It's a risky strategy

Come on CFC, stop f%^#ing around. Make it happen.
And I'm talking about Jack.
Actually, Durante Koala, I was thinking the same thing. When I did watch the NBs game (I probably caught a little over half) I was surprised at how SOJ 'hunted' the aggot when on ball - bona fide footy smarts, surprised and impressed. Yes, his body may not yet be up to the rigors of a lot of time in the guts but he aint gonna learn if he aint given a go... and this is the year to do it.

Why not give him a bit of time in 2s to get up to speed on a midfield role? After all he has plenty of time ahead of him, hopefully.

Fast?!? Not an adjective I'd use for Jack S.

As you no doubt know, Professory, there are two types of speed when it comes to footy - leg speed and footy smarts speed... Jack seems to have the latter.

I agree with you but he must work on his speed over the first few steps.

The whole Simpson's episode was a commentary on the concepts like those in you describe in your workplace, a trend that swept through Silicon Valley years ago. Workplaces offering that sort of environment quickly became the target of less than motivated employees opportunistically gaming the system. It is one of the factors that are said to have contributed to Silicon Valley's mini-crash years ago, and why most surviving organisations have now restructured to limit the scope of employee choice! Out of that also came Hot Desking, which is an accountant psychopath's solution to the problems the earlier concepts created.
Hot Desking is basically trying to achieve 100% return from a capital resource by ignoring/eliminating the human element as an effect, it is built on the premise that workers can work as much or as little as they like as long as their station is staffed and operating at capacity! It does this at the expense of consistency and quality. What happens is you end up with job sharing and part-time staffing generating massive under-employment and eliminating penalty rates while keeping things running 24x7. It seems attractive to new mother's in particular, until the kids go to school and they find they cannot get full-time work, and their husbands have reduced wages due to the job sharing pressures on the marketplace. Millennials are a particular victim of this.
Either concept might work in some limited scope, but they cannot be generalised.
If you leave a loophole, there will always be someone less altruistic who is willing to do their very best to take advantage of it. If you try something like this with a playing group there is a very high risk just that at some stage one or two individuals could undo your whole construct.
The concepts are great, if the employees are altruistic robots, the type that send you a work email at 3am in the middle of the holiday season.
I don't know about your sector, it's size or scale, I'm not making a comment about where you work.
