Promotion and Power

Promotion and Power

Promotion brings significant responsibility as it grants us the authority to influence others. As we engage with individuals, we encounter both high performers and those who may not perform as well. This is where the power we hold comes into play, and we are faced with the choice of using it to lift others or to diminish their abilities. Power can either be a constructive tool or a destructive weapon, potentially strengthening or weakening relationships. It's important to recognize that the main purpose of being promoted is to uplift others to greater heights.

It's ironic that with feelings of jealousy, we might demoralize high performers, while with a sense of authority, we could also discourage those struggling. Our primary role, however, is to motivate and inspire others, and failure to do so renders our promotion meaningless.

To avoid such pitfalls, we must first reflect on our attitude towards others, our insecurities, and our capacity to support those who may not perform as well. This introspection will enable us to better understand ourselves before interacting with others.

Like the military does not entrust a weapon to an untrained or immature soldier, we should aspire for promotions only when we are mature enough to harness power positively and responsibly."
