Promoting the wrong people has a devastating effect on high performers who are overlooked. We're not talking about overlooking for promotions, but overlooking in the small ways, not being thanked for hard work, not being developed. Let's start focusing on #culture and see how it can elevate our teams and our businesses simultaneously.

In our quest to build resilient and innovative teams, the decisions we make about who to promote can either propel us forward or set us back significantly. 👇 A recent study found that companies with effective promotion strategies report a 95% satisfaction rate among employees, whereas companies with frequent misalignment in promotions see up to a 40% increase in turnover rates. Are your promotions based on merit and potential? How transparent and fair is your promotion process? Does your team feel valued and understood? Promoting the right people isn’t just about filling a position. It’s about recognizing those who embody your company's values and have the vision to lead. It's about retaining top talent and ensuring the long-term health of your organization. If you found this post helpful, repost it with your network.
