In organizations, there are inner workings that are not understood by the general members of staff. The CEO or the board of directors can make decisions that the staff don't understand. I have seen cases where a very junior staff is promoted to become a manager over staff that have been in the organization for a longer time. It can be very demoralizing. How does the senior staff handle this situation?
I have been a beneficiary of this arrangement before. I was one year and seven months in the organization and I was made the Head of the Department over a staff that had been there for four years. The guy just resigned and left to work somewhere else. He said that it was a slap on his face. Is that the right thing to do in that cricumstance? Does it mean someone cannot work under a superior who was a junior staff?
