Interesting experiences...
I have also seen this happen several times... bosses tend to take their favorites whereever they go. That way, they know their team and can quickly focus on what they need to do...
However, many of you think that the team player option is the better one. Thats interesting too...

If you are only Boss's Favorite, you will shine only in the forum where your boss is present. If you are a trusted team player, you will shine at any forum, even in absence of your boss.

Team player, hands down! The way I see it, there is no guarantee that your boss will remain in the boss position forever. If a new person is appointed in his/her place, you are pretty much busted. Oh, and I think having a good relationship with your coworkers is crucial....in 99% of the cases, its their help you need.

A trusted team player is better than a boss’s favourite because Trust develops everything but favouritism kills everything.

Hi,
What do u think that... what is more important? Being your Boss's fav. or a trusted Team player....I mean what does your instinct says? It surprises me to see that there are people who have said that it is more important to be boss favorite these days.....but, quite humbly i would like to ask them few questions:
a. How long can you go by being your Boss favorite? What if the boss changes?
b. How long can you just 'pretend' to be competent under the shadow of your boss?
c. What about your own ethics, wherein you can just take all the credits just because you are your boss favorite wherein others who are the real performers keep suffering?
d. You think you can ever grow with an attitude like this wherein you will always be called a 'Sycophant'.
e. Real happiness comes when people around you love you trust you. Money and success just follow then......
Pardon to all those members who feel that I have gone a little out of way...but that's what i feel as far as this topic is concerned.....

Should not be both but should be ' Trusted Team player'.
If you will be a TTP then you can enjoy your work and you can allow others to enjoy their work.
Boss always will be there. You can not live without boss but should not forget that there are collegues .
