A productive workplace is a blend of teamwork and leadership. But what happens to the team when the leadership changes as a result of a promotion? When one individual succeeds and others are passed by, business productivity can take a nosedive and office politics can destroy employee loyalty and morale. A succession policy, smart management methods and effective communication can minimize the rejected employee’s discomfort and avert the in-office negativity that can ruin a workplace.
For employees who are passed over for a promotion, the experience can be ego-crushing and embarrassing. Without an effective promotions process, the emotions and actions of a rejected employee can escalate, threatening client relationships, production, employee retention and even the company’s bottom line.
But experts say bad experiences related to the promotions process are usually a result of one thing: bad promotion administration. For those managers who plan before the promotion, what is often an uncomfortable experience can be one of open dialogue, understanding and mutual respect.
Office politics often play a role in job promotions. Factions can develop with employees lining up in support of both the candidate who received the promotion and the one who didn’t, usually destroying the team mentality needed to accomplish the work. Offset office politics by implementing team-building activities.
