As a HR professional in local government, I'm concerned about the relationships that sometimes exists between our elected officials and employees. Some call it "Politicking", others call it "Favoritism", but its really micromanaging and very damaging. Employees do not follow internal chain of command and circumvent management to address issues with elected officials. In my short time here, I've seen the effect this has on employees who are not part of the "loop" and seem to suffer as a result of it. What steps can I take to address this situation and educate the organization.
