Office politics is effectively discrimination against many neuro divergences. It also kills productivity in companies.
No I don’t have a solution.
- Aeolun 3y agoNot necessarily. Certain divergences can very easily ‘learn’ to play. Even if it’s all mechanics to them.
- aaomidi 3y agoHence the word “many”
- Gigachad 3y agoI agree that this happens, but it’s just a fact of life. We are all born different and those differences make us more or less suited to certain jobs. I can never be a professional basketball player because I wasn’t born with the right genetics for it. Some neurodivergent traits might make jobs in management or public communication difficult or impossible, but they could be a boost for other kinds of work like programming and research.
- yencabulator 3y agoThe harder someone plays office politics the less likely that person is the one doing the actual work. From the point of view of a neuro divergent person, it's a corruption of the system by "the other group".
- aaomidi 3y agoAnd devs are not insulated from this. So much time of devs are wasted to play office politics.
