There is no harm if nepotism is done but it should be in healthy ways..base should always to benefit the org.

hi,
Nepotism is a wrong practice if it is practiced in any org. I don't think an org will ever grow in this competitive environment. Yes if people are competitive and intelligent should be hired vic-versa is self destructive.
Nepotism is like a time bomb which will start when good people start leaving the org.

Hi
I totally agree with your opinion, because if we really think about the real goal of the Org, we would never hire someone from this way.
Also it will create a bad working environment, this people will feel themself "protected"or like they have an umbrella. what will for sure demotivate the others.
Thanks for the good topic

Hi,
Nepotism works both ways. It is the context that matters. In a big national/ multinational company nepotism will erode the cohesiveness and the camaraderie that employees enjoy. However in a small family owned business nepotism can be useful when practiced in a reasonable way. The emotional bonds between family members can actually have a positive effect on individual performance and company results.
Today some big companies do allow married couples to work in the same company to ensure that talent is not wasted. But it is better to ensure that they do not work in related positions to ensure emotions do not cloud the decision making process.
So like all things in life there cannot be a Right and Wrong for Nepotism. It is all shades of grey. We need to take each case by case.

Hi,
I do agree with this as a coin has two different sides nepotism have its positives and negatives. In small family business it can work smoothly but in corporate sector mostly it lead to feelings of resentment and mistrust, resulting in decreased morale and productivity.

Nepotism:
In Larger Companies: 100% No to Nepotism
Nepotism in larger companies will give way for mistrust in the minds of hardworking employees towards the company.
In Small and Medium Business:
70% No & 30% Yes to Nepotism
In these kind of companies, you will find people with all kinds of talent. People who are hardworking & talented will definitely oppose it, but when it comes to them they support it. I have seen many people doing that. In these companies, many people doesn't come to stay forever in that organization. They prefer to move to large companies in the future and they hardly worry about things like this.
In Small Companies:
20% No 80% Yes to Nepotism
In Smaller Companies, the CEO's prefer to hire the employee whom he can believe/trust rather than the talent levels. In these cases, it would really help the organization if we know the person beforehand. The risk factor that these companies take is very less when compared to bigger companies. In smaller companies, trust drives the work and not the money!

Nepotism -- Every one uses that for their comfortness in the organisation but that should not be encoraged, once you do it for your comfortness that will be followed and the organisational culture will be effected. Nepotism is done for motivation, but One should be very causcious about that.
