AIA35集思广益中参与讨论提高自己惠及他人

A35. “Companies should never hire or promote employees on the basis of family relationships, friendships, or other social connections.”

这个似乎要牵扯到美国的文化价值观问题我不知道具体应该是怎么样才能得到大多数阅卷老师的认同还清大家集思广益。

It depends.

Hiring should always be merit based. Whoever has the skills and ability to handle the job gets the position. If two have similar skills, pick the one you know better to avoid uncertainties, even if he's part of your family. It's perfect ok. The exaggeration is the saying, "it's not about how much you know, it's about who you know."

呵呵，好赞啊！

问一个不大相关的象是雇佣保险推销员。人脉就比较重要了。那在美国或者是西方的公司里面会不会因为prospective员工的社会背景比较强悍有可能搞到大客户而忽略他或她的推销能力呢？

I think any company should  hire employees based not on family relationships or friendships, but on capabilities or merits.

1) employees in the company who have some family relationships or friendships would promote a unfair competition environment, which would reduce the overall efficiecy and loyalty of other employees.

2)This hiring policy would influence the company's external reputation, which would affect the supplier relationship and customer relationship, even sometimes cause public shareholder nightmare.

3)There is no denying that for many incipient companies, hiring relatives and friends will help survive among other larger corporations. Such as finding clients, publicate products... But....

my two cents...

外举不避仇，内举不避亲，任人唯贤，用人唯能。

不是提纲，只是突然想到的~
