It should be any organization’s goal to recognize external raw talent, onboard it, and put it in a position to grow and develop successfully within the organization. Once that talent has matured enough, there should be the opportunity to promote them to positions of greater importance in the organization, returning the investment spent on their development. This increases the likelihood of talent retention and adding to the culture of nurturing success from within while refraining from hiring externally and potentially throwing the culture out of balance or having to endlessly re-establish it. Promoting from within is, therefore, part of any organization’s mission statement.
