Most of suggestions seems to be out of practical situations, there are times, when you know you boss is wrong and if you go against it yours career graph might be ruined, you have to choose between your career or betterment of organization.

It is better to quit your job from such an organization where your career depends on sycophancy because the very existence of that origination is not safe or predictable.

Such attitude could be okay in small organizations. But in bigger organizations , there is possibility of change of boss as well. There is need to adopt a pragmatic approach. You may express your views frankly but what boss says will be final. He will be responsible for the decisions that he took.

It's not a boss's decision anymore but collective responsibility of the work group. What you said is true for lower level staff but management cannot leave anything to sycophants. Someone or the other has to come up with the corrective measure or damage control.

This depends on level of authority. Even when collective decision is taken, there must be some one who is vested with authority to have a final say in case of difference of opinion in team. You can't wait till all agree.

You are right being yesman does not always pay. Yet, many a places we see yesmen climbing higher on the ladder whereas competent and valuable men are left at the bottom. However, as the story goes, one day ,the king surrounded by sycophants might walk along the road naked and would think he is dressed in regalia.

I am never been a yes man, I always see what is true and what is the correct way according to rules and regulations, I always not listen when the boss gave me verbal order, as I always prefer written order, for this I have to face the brunt bosses for some time, but that does not concern me as I am getting full happiness while working in accordance with rules and regulations. :whistle:
