Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Job specialization involves focusing on one specific task or a very narrow range of tasks, which can lead to boredom and lack of empowerment. This is because the repetitive nature of specialized tasks offers little variety or challenge, potentially leading to decreased motivation and energy for work, as described in Ted's situation.
