Career Talk: Learn - Grow - Thrive

Dealing With Favoritism At Work

Listen Later

Ask yourself:

  • How do I help my manager achieve team goals?
  • Am I hitting my goals / KPIs?
  • What am I doing to make my managers job easier?
  • Am I doing anything to cause tension / friction at work?

    • Action items:

    • Ask your manager how you can help
    • Discuss your wins in 1:1's or team meetings (when appropriate)
    • Ask for feedback from your leader and team (if it makes sense, usually does)
    • Look for areas where you make something easy for your leader or team
    • Ensure the goals, individually and team are clear and have deadlines
    • Is the entire team being held accountable for the same things?
    • Volunteer to lead projects, meetings, assignments
    • Keep it about you and how you can improve and do better vs them
    • Stay positive and keep out of team gossip
    • Be honest
    • Stay motivated and working hard
    • Try to assume good intent vs malicious intent
    • Have an honest, transparent conversation with your leader in a 1:1
    • If you are being favorited, try to share the love aka praise, projects, attending conferences, classes, etc.
