When I played X-Com, we had these different soldiers of different compositions. Everyone could do the same thing, fire a gun, be bait, throw a grenade, but some did some parts better than others. I ended up giving them names that reflect their roles, so that I'd be reminded where to put them.

I can imagine a company with three managers doing this - you'd have Project Manager Alice, Technical Manager Bob, Scrum Master Catherine. They might take the roles interchangeably, but it acts as a comment for senior management.
