Let employees apply for an internal move with current role, target team and manager-awareness fields, giving HR one reviewable record per request.
Quick answer
Internal moves go wrong when the current manager hears last — one form captures from-where, to-where, motivation, earliest start, handover plan and whether the manager knows, with the outcome filed alongside.
Internal moves often start as hallway conversations and end as misunderstandings — the target manager thinks HR approved it, the current manager hears it last. This form makes every transfer request a written record: who, from where, to where, why, when — and whether the current manager already knows. HR reviews one shape of information, not four versions of a story.
