The majority of managers are promoted from within. Your employees' advancements show your dedication to them. Recent promotions also provide a boost in energy and hopefully contribute to leadership that is crucial to your company's growth. All of these are positive, but there are also risks. One of the biggest problems is that your managers are unlikely to be familiar with employment laws and regulations, as well as acceptable methods of hiring, managing, and terminating employees. Without this background, they pose a significant legal risk to your organization. It only takes one staff management error to derail operations and cost your organization millions of dollars.
