[Verse 1] When promotion time comes around the year Make the criteria crystal clear Document the standards, post them high So every employee can qualify No hidden rules or secret doors Just transparent, consistent scores [Chorus] Move them up, move them through Internal paths for me and you Nine-box grid and talent reviews Succession plans with different views Potential's more than what you see Fair promotion strategy [Verse 2] Job postings go internal first Give your people time to rehearse Mobility programs pave the way Cross-department, cross-level play Open doors before you hire Let internal talent aspire [Chorus] Move them up, move them through Internal paths for me and you Nine-box grid and talent reviews Succession plans with different views Potential's more than what you see Fair promotion strategy [Bridge] High potential doesn't mean Just the loudest on the scene Check your bias at the door Look for talent you've ignored Stretch assignments help them grow Give them chances, watch them glow [Verse 3] Development plans for every star Map the journey, near and far Talent calibration sessions Honest, fair assessment lessons Ready now or ready soon Build your bench beneath the moon [Final Chorus] Move them up, move them through Internal paths for me and you Nine-box thinking, clear reviews Succession plans with broader views Potential comes in many forms Fair promotion transforms [Outro] Transparent paths and documented ways These are your promotion days
