Especially, the promotion of middle and senior managers play an important role in terms of organization\u2019s success. In personnel promotion problem in which the candidates are nominated within the organization and they have been working for a specific period of time and are known in their organization, the candidates should be evaluated based on their recent as well as past performances to make right selection for the vacant position. For this reason, the purpose of this paper is to propose an integrated dynamic multi-attribute decision-making (MADM) model based on intuitionistic fuzzy set for solving personnel promotion problem. <\/jats:p>\n            <\/jats:sec>\n            <jats:sec>\n               <jats:title content-type=\"abstract-heading\">Design\/methodology\/approach<\/jats:title>\n               <jats:p> \u2013 The proposed model integrates analytic hierarchy process (AHP) technique and the dynamic evaluation by intuitionistic fuzzy operator for personnel promotion. AHP is employed to determine the weight of attributes based on decision maker\u2019s opinions, and the dynamic operator is utilized to aggregate evaluations of candidates for different years. Atanassov\u2019s intuitionistic fuzzy set theory is utilized to represent uncertainty and vagueness in MADM process. <\/jats:p>\n            <\/jats:sec>\n            <jats:sec>\n               <jats:title content-type=\"abstract-heading\">Findings<\/jats:title>\n               <jats:p> \u2013 A numerical example is presented to show the applicability of the proposed method for personnel promotion problem and a sensitivity analysis is conducted to demonstrate efficiency of dynamic evaluation. The findings indicate that the varying weights of years employed determined the best candidate for promotion. <\/jats:p>\n            <\/jats:sec>\n            <jats:sec>\n               <jats:title
