Nepotism as a negative factor in organization performance

Abstract

Nepotism in the work place has its pro and contra. In this paper nepotism it will be 
seen as a negative factor in the organization performance, although there are 
different opinions that nepotism not always has a negative impact for the 
organization performance. To prove this a research has been done in some 
companies from Dukagjini Region. Nepotism in itself is not considered a bad think if 
the companies hire qualified people but the research shows that nepotism in 
Kosovo companies is a negative factor and as such it negatively influence in the 
performance of the employees and of the organization. In Kosovo it seems that is 
not enough and necessary to have a degree and to be super qualified for the job 
you apply for but is indispensable to know an influential person who will help to 
find a job. The problem starts with a non transparent recruiting system and you will 
see yourself led by an unqualified and irresponsible person.
