By definition, favouritism refers to a situation where an individual in a leadership position demonstrates preferential treatment to one employee in comparison to others, for reasons unrelated to performance.

The effects of favouritism are detrimental in the workplace. It creates discouragement amongst employees because of the lack of correlation between hard work and success.

Favouritism becomes more offending and frustrating when the manager holds a secret (love) relationship with the protege.

In case you are one, just be aware that the whole company knows about you.
They don’t confront you, simply because you are higher in the hierarchy, not because they respect you!

Marijo Samneh Quotes 11

Most employees quit their jobs not because of their poor performance at work, but because of their managers. However, the responsibility doesn’t lie on direct managers alone, but rather on the poor management system of the firm that is not addressing the problems and concerns of its employees effectively.

The biggest danger facing an organization is when their most passionate elements lose interest.

The passionate elements of an organization are its key to success. The danger is when the passionate ones lose their passion or motivation… for any reason!

Therefore a message to all leaders: do whatever it takes to keep your team motivated, otherwise you will lose the glow and victory you are currently witnessing.

Marijo Samneh Quote 9

Dear Chairpersons and CEOs,

Hiring people based on your personal interest or influencing the management into hiring them is not acceptable.

The act of influencing starts by throwing a name to a subordinate, especially if you surround yourself with “yes men”.

Hiring is a bottom-up procedure, not top down. 

Bear in mind two things:

1. These people you’re hiring will negatively impact the institution, because of the frustration they create among colleagues, especially if they don’t have enough decency to stay silent about their way of getting in. Let alone when they happen to be bullies who threaten colleagues of firing them in your name. (Corridor talks of “I am very close to Mr. X or my father is his best friend” is an implicit way of threatening.) 

2. When you disrespect the rules, you provide everyone around you with an excuse to do the same.

So, be mindful of the above before preaching about corporate governance in public.
