Reimagining Promotions
What if the way we promote people is part of the problem? In this bold episode of Development Reimagined, Chin and Anita unpack the tangled world of promotions—what they reward, what they overlook, and who they often leave behind. From favoritism and vague criteria to visibility politics and limited leadership roles, they reimagine a workplace where growth is earned, not granted—and where success doesn’t always mean “moving up.” You’ll explore:
  • Why traditional promotions often miss the mark
  • The invisible “fit” and visibility factors that derail fairness
  • New models: specialist tracks, rotational pods, and project-based roles
  • A provocative idea: what if we got rid of promotions altogether?
This episode challenges organizations to move beyond titles and redefine advancement in more equitable, flexible, and future-forward ways.
