Hi, in my office, I'm always doing my job without keeping anything pending, but still my GM always tries to find mistakes in me. Whereas another colleague is not completing his responsibilities on time, still, the GM will take it lightly.
I feel that since I'm the accounts manager and he is the operations manager, maybe that is why the GM gives less importance. One more thing, the operations manager will never listen and respect anybody in the office; he will never reply to emails also. Despite all this, he is successful.
Please provide some clarity on how to handle this!

You need to show more maturity in your workplace and view things from a proper perspective.
Things will change. If you still feel that what you are saying is a reality, then please approach your GM after your working hours and discuss the matter sincerely. Do not become aggressive in the discussion but be assertive.

Hi,
Perception differs! How you assess your own work may not be the same when assessed by your superior/HOD. It's human psychology that we always think highly of ourselves and will not admit where we lack, where to improve, etc. Please develop a positive attitude towards your GM and colleagues. Discuss with your GM when he is free about his expectations of your performance. Please do a SWOT analysis of yourself (https://creately.com/blog/diagrams/personal-swot-analysis/).
In what way is your GM going to benefit by treating two managers differently? Do you have an answer to this question?
At times, apart from work performance, other traits will also be given more weightage, such as attitude, interpersonal skills, troubleshooting on the work front without escalating every trivial matter to the next level, being proactive on the work front, etc.
Mostly, rather than hard work, smart work is appreciated by superiors. Before I conclude, always remember, "comparisons never end - you can never be satisfied if you start comparing yourself to someone else."
Be positive! Wish you good luck!

Will appreciate if you judge yourself before judging others. If you really feel you are competent and worthy of your skills and can navigate office politics successfully, then address the issue; otherwise, maintain a polite, positive attitude and focus on learning.

As per my understanding, it's not mentioned what type of organization you are working with to understand more about what happened. However, it's true that many companies are in business for the purpose of making money. Money is paramount to anything or anyone in the business world. As you are an accounts manager, you should present your financial data in a smart way. Right or wrong differs for everyone, and what's right to you may be wrong to me, but the truth is always universal. Believe in your efforts and try to handle things in a different style.

Hello Team,
I read the discussion, but many times talking to the boss after working hours also doesn't look good. Even if the person discusses with the boss about his/her expectations, he won't open up his views. He may say all is okay, no issues. Sometimes the boss's expectations may be that the employee helps with personal things, which many people are unable to do. Though maturity is shown at some point, we feel demotivated by the partiality in the same team.

It seems that you are comparing yourself with that "other" manager who you think is being favored. My guess is that you both have different types of assignments.
The GM is responsible for overall performance and accountability. He can only favor someone at his own peril. In any case, the judgment and treatment of other employees are not your responsibility. So stop punishing yourself by this comparison of treatment. Just be concerned with your work and take pride in your work quality so that no one can find faults with your work.
You are lucky to be in accounts where work and performance are measurable and not subject to personal biases. My experience is that good accountants are much in demand and enjoy a privileged position when they do good analysis and checks to prevent cash leakage.
To begin with, be clear that that person's performance is not your responsibility. Do quality work, and you will be rewarded.

It's all about your thinking. You are comparing yourself with others. Whenever you start comparing yourself with others, you will never focus on your own work. This lack of focus can lead to more mistakes and cause a loss of self-confidence. Therefore, you need to ignore these comparisons and concentrate on your own work with quality. Once you become skilled at producing quality work and bring uniqueness to your tasks, your boss will begin to appreciate your efforts. Eventually, you will realize that your boss is favoring you in various tasks. Ignore the negativity and try to see the positive aspects in every moment.

Do not measure your progress using someone else's ruler. Why do you evaluate or judge colleagues? Your comparison with others is not good. Business is formed by many minds and many hands. If you are not fit for their culture, you can move because you are not a tree. Biased culture is used as a strategy in Indian workplaces, and it is an unprofessional practice. Many organizations, especially big ones, practice culture-based hiring as well. They may slightly overlook quality, talent, efficiency, and effectiveness. Culture can perpetuate bias and unprofessionalism in the workplace. If you respect your culture and also respect others, then culture will not be a deciding factor in hiring, coordinating, and managing people.
