When you are in the place of leadership in the workplace, you would be faced with different issues and problems. This is because you would be working with man power (humans) alot that comes with different manipulation daily. So you should always expects some very weird behaviors from the workers.
Workplace politics is real, people would want to boost their status or manipulate things to get noticed for one favor or the other. If you the manager you would need to apply wisdom by doing things that would not show you are in support of the politics going on. So you can nip it in the bud by doing the following:
Be fair to all the workers
Handle issues intelligently and never take sides
Give due appreciation to deserving workers to encourage hard work
Resolve issues as soon as you can even if it involves a much junior worker
Avoid favoritism on some workers to nip bias.
Add yours?
