As professionals, we should encourage and applaud internal promotion processes. At the same time, we understand that not all companies are able to achieve this, but that does not mean that it is impossible. This article highlights the importance of internal mobility (promotion from within) for both employees and companies. Here are the key takeaways: The Importance of Internal Mobility and How to Promote It:   - Benefits for Employees: Increased career opportunities, skill development, and engagement.   - Benefits for Companies: Reduced time-to-hire, retention of top talent, and a stronger talent pipeline.   How to promote internal mobility:   - Collaborative Approach: Involve all relevant teams (HR, DEI, talent acquisition) to create clear career paths and keep skill profiles updated.   - Data-Driven Decisions: Use metrics to convince managers of the benefits of internal mobility. Celebrate high "transformation rates" of managers who develop talent within their teams.   - Focus on DEI: Address the lack of career opportunities for underrepresented groups. Provide clear information on available jobs, networking opportunities, and career development resources.   - Start Small: Focus on a specific group of roles with high demand or rapid change. Achieve success in one area before expanding company-wide.   - Compensation & Skills Focus: Collaborate with the compensation team to ensure competitive salaries based on skills rather than just job titles. Track in-demand skills and adjust compensation accordingly. By following these steps, companies can create a culture of internal mobility that benefits both employees and the organization as a whole. #InternalMobility #Promotion #CareerPath #ProfessionalDevelopment
