This episode is a multi-dimensional look at favouritism in the workplace. Our guest, David Sturt discusses this phenomenon from the perspective of the leader, the organisation, and the report.

Inevitably, the issue of leadership is discussed, particularly the distinction between modern and traditional leaders.

David explains when favouritism can be good and when it becomes toxic.

Very importantly, when favouritism causes leaders to become myopic in the kind of people they hire, promote, and ultimately fraternise with, it can have dire consequences for organisations. These organisations will find it increasingly difficult to compete in the global landscape.

While it may be normal to feel bad if you’re not a favourite, David points out why employees should not rush to conclusions.
