Non-specialised in every respect (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

allround

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'non-specialised' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot tell whether it can be defined by this definition.

'every respect' is the wordplay.
'every' becomes 'all' (similar in meaning).
'respect' becomes 'round' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'all'+'round'='ALLROUND'

'in' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?
