That's interesting. Is that because these organizations are afraid that they'll lose the official to higher levels, or is it more the crabs in a bucket mentality?

In my experience in a previous association, it was bitterness on the part of the good ol' boys who missed their opportunity to move up to higher levels in their career. Most of them were "1 year of experience, 30 times" kind of officials.
