Some colleagues consistently work smarter and accomplish more than others. As high performers, they naturally get more attention and recognition from leaders. In a world of meritocracy, such high performers would be exalted by peers, as well. After all, their hyper-productivity generates more resources for everyone else on the team.
Great post. Really got me thinking about this one over the past few days. Do you think one could also make the argument that the 'jealous' colleagues may be seeing the high performer from a different perspective than the leader - one that is not so rosy?
Does a culture of recognition include participation trophies?
