Everyone works hard in the workplace, and promotion and salary increase are the most hoped rewards. However, when you get a promotion, have you carefully considered whether the promotion means that your voice and importance have increased? Or is it just a change of "top hat", or the company has other considerations for you?
A young man, who has worked hard in a company for many years, has managed to be promoted from a department head to a vice president of the company. As a result, he invited guests everywhere, and his family was very happy. After many years of daughter-in-law, she finally became a vice president and entered the core management of the company.
However, the good times did not last long, and he was full of sorrow and could no longer be happy. Because he gradually felt that his voice in the company was getting smaller and smaller. In the past, when he was in charge, although the position was not high, he controlled the most core department of the company, and he wanted the wind to be windy and the rain to be rainy. Although he has now been promoted, he has left his original post and become an idle person, and his right to speak is completely incomparable.
This is the secret of the interaction between position and discourse power. Vice presidents with top hats are often not necessarily the holders of real power. For example, the sales supervisor is often much more powerful than the vice president in charge of logistics. Similarly, the vice president in charge of the back-office supply chain is often less important than the marketing supervisor.
Don't think that it's good that your boss has promoted you, remember, if the promotion is not weighted, it may just be "bright rise and dark drop". In fact, real power is much more important than the size of the position.
For a person who is considered "problematic" by the company, promotion is sometimes a bowl of ecstasy soup, making you feel that the company values itself, and begins to float lightly, and the feeling of walking in the clouds comes. In fact, there are many people who have this idea, but often they are difficult to survive in the workplace for a long time.
Therefore, for power, the weight of discourse power is the most critical. As for what color and material of chair you sit under your ass, sometimes it seems less important.
