Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The best way to address concerns over nepotism is to have the family member work outside of the family business first, gaining experience and skills that can be valuable to the business. This also shows other employees that the family member is being hired based on merit and not just because of their family connection. Starting in a job made especially for them (C) or starting in a high level position with minimal contact with employees (B) can still fuel perceptions of nepotism. Earning a broad general education (A) can be helpful, but it does not necessarily address concerns over nepotism.
