Successful organizations usually depend on “domain experts” to guide them regarding best practice, best approach or the most efficient ways of accomplishing objectives. Gaining domain expertise requires a focused, conscious investment of time and resources. Hence, organizations make calculated decisions regarding the type of skills they are required to invest in. Some of the benefits that domain experts may bring to an organization are:
