ROOM FOR ELEVATION:
If there is a legitimate room for elevation then that is permissible. But taking undue advantage of the role given to him to play for a shorter span of time, would not lead naturally to move to a ladder up in career.
You need to take a stock of the situation and try to clearly put a demarcation of the roles and responsibilities of the person in question.
Everywhere, when he tries to over play or act smart, his activity must be curtailed so as to clearly indicate that his work is limited to a role, where he cannot go beyond that.
It is not right to speak out, whether he is in "need" or not, once a Manager is there, none of the sub-ordinates can take over his role at any point of time, unless the situation warrants.
