Abstract

Empirical evidences and reports from international organizations monitoring countries

under transition process indicate that some

aspects

of

leadership

and

people

management

in la er countries

are

characterized

with

phenomenon

of

cronyism.

Therefore,

this

paper

a empted

to

analyze

the

impact

of

rules

and

regulations

regarding

people

management

improvement,

especially

in

area

of

employee

promotions and relocations.

The

paper

doesn’t

claim

that

organizations

need

to

install

more

rules

and

regulations

in

general

because too

many

regulations

result

in

establishment

of

archaic

bureaucracy.

We

insist

to

develop

specifi c

rules

regarding

the

Human

Resource

Management

in

order

to

protect

employees

from

subjective

managerial

approach.

Moreover,

the

paper

a empted

in

critical

manner

to

clarify

that

generic

rules

and

regulations

regarding

people

management

leave

to

much

space

for

subjective

interpretation

of

them,

thereby

can

be

unfairly

implemented.

Our

empirical

evidence

and

literature

review

found

that

unfair

employee

promotions and

relocations are more prevalent in state owned companies,

resulting

in

poor

job

commitment

and

in

de-motivation

of

employees.

In

our

analysis

we

brought

up

some

recommendations

in

order

to

improve

people

management.

Finally,

it

was

concluded

that

public institutions

should take into considerations changes in respect of employee management, which would

tackle partiality and subjective promotion and relocations of employees.

Introduction

In

a

historical

retrospective

the

human

civilization

progress

has

been

in

direct

proportion

with

installation

of

rules

and

regulation.

By

installing

rules

and

regulations

the

humans

have

given

away

some

of

their

personal

rights

in

order

to

function

be er

as

a

society.

Historical

evidences

make

clear

that

more

or

less

organized

groups

throughout

history,

such

as

tribes,

clans

or

modern

state

governments

although

having

amongst

them

outstanding

leaders

who

have

inspired

people

in

achieving

di erent

goals,

needed

to

install

adequate

rules

and

regulations

in

order

to

establish

a

functional

–

organized

system.

In

the

dynamic

world

we

are

living

it

is

very

di cult

to

fi nd

ideal

charismatic

leaders.

Instead

norms,

laws

and

regulations

are

becoming

relevant

substitutes

for

them.

Furthermore,

sometimes

leaders

use

their

power

to

a ain

their

own

interests.

In

this

context

the

need

of

rules

and

regulations

gets

more

importance.

Nowadays,

especially

for

a

state owned

companies

is

very

important

to

develop

such

a

formal

system

of

rules

and

regulations

which

will

protect

the

company

from

the

manager’s

confl ict

of

interest,

and

moreover,

protect

the

employees

from

the
