Harvard Business Review article, "The Young and the Clueless."
The final exam is based on the Harvard Business Review article, "The Young and the Clueless." Throughout this course, we have emphasized the need to align internal, HR-systems behind corporate strategy. This approach is done to ensure the company is able to compete within its external environment.
After reading the article, please answer the following:
1) What internal HR-systems seem to be weak, which would allow for an individual to be promoted prior to being ready? (Be careful, there may be several systems which are not apparent at first, so think about this).
2) What improvements might you suggest to strengthen these systems to mitigate the potential for unqualified employees to be promoted?
3) Are "young and clueless" employees the only potential employees who could be wrongfully promoted in such a system? What is wrong with this statement?
Your written response should be about 2000 words.
