title: The dynamics of holding an acting position.
abstract: When a key person resigns or is fired, his or her job may be filled by an acting employee. Usually this works well, but there may be hidden costs for both employee and organization. Questions the prospective acting person might ask and tips for superiors are among the findings from in-depth interviews with 19 subjects in a variety of positions.
