Boss is a captain of the team & we as a team member expects trustworthy captain/leader. If this is true, then no ambiguity remains of being favourite OR trusted. If it is false then we need to change the team or if possible change the Captain. Team member performs if they have trust in their Captain & this is cyclic more the trust - more the performance - more the trust - ........

Well i agree with what Archana quoted, i have a same situation too wherein favourites r ruling and the people who r actually performing r somewhere hidden n their efforts r only recognized when mistakenly they come in front of boss.. but there's one thing which shall always stay - the individual's honesty, skills , commitment n hard work, One fine day favourites can become non favourites at some time, but the work which is done the best will always find its way ... Time comes for everyone.

Well Veena, I have also scene situations wherein the Boss's favourite walks off easily even after committing a blunder n others suffer even for a (relatively) minor error.. in such situations i have always thought that it is probably the bad luck of the organization in the long run that they r placing such ppl in the top levels... destiny will give us our share put in ur best n dont miss the opportunity to prove that.

A good topic but difficult to have a correct answer.
As Nobomita puts it, the culture of the organisation that makes a difference.

I think one should try to become a trusted team member rather than being a boss favoruite...
If you want to be succesful, you have to be trusted team members,so that you can get the support from other team member as well, being a boss favoruite can affect your performances by not supporting by other team members ( jealousy ) ....and if you work better, you will be supported by all ,whther its boss or team members.

Hi
Its nice to know most people believe in being a trusted team player rather than a boss's fav. I have been in this situation. I guess many would have been.
My HOD wanted me to be at his beck and call and i always believed that my work should speak for me and not favouritism.. My immediate boss liked my work and trusted me, so did my entire team. My HOD didnt like the fact that i didnt want to be his fav. So he chose a colleague of mine as his 'pet' who willingly obliged (coincidently was not a good worker but a great orator). It resulted in 5 years of day to day suffering, but my team mates respected me and were always willing to help me. That HOD got transferred eventually. My colleague became the butt of jokes and ridicule and till date is known for being a 'chamcha'.
So, being honest to oneself and work is important. Everything else is secondary.

Friends , being boss's favourite is an art as well being team leader is another art , an individual should posses both the traits,
should not avoid either ( some or the other way that makes you in trouble which leads you frustrated condition ) , both art are the two eyes that is very important to view the world
try to learn both the things so that your professional life would be happy
Nowhere you can see perfect person as your boss , all human likes that his/her subordinates always to support and bow their heads to him, however don't neglect such personality , act infront of him , then do your duty with perfection . according to my first and second point , its an art .
You can't change your boss , let us change ourselves accroding to the individuals ( again remindig its an art )
One must possess various kind of art in our life to lead success in which this is also one among them
learnt it , try it , become an expert
wising you all the very best for this new learnings

Excellent reply. i appreciate your sincerity, honesty and hardship that you had overcome...I can even understand the happiness you gained through your honesty, which money can't even buy it.
I am sure Mr. Nikhil will understand and realize "the power of honesty to oneself and how important is company's objectives rather being BOSS FAVORITE or SUPERIORS PET"
Good Luck..
With profound regards

In today’s circumstances……definitely everybody wants to become their boss favorite. Nobody (boss) want to see your hard work, honesty and dedication……this is what my experience. In many organization only boss favorite employees are getting good increment, promotion, incentives etc. etc.
