In group favoritism

Is a pattern of favoring members in one's inner circle over other team members.? This is a phenomenon that influences presidential elections to the normal work-related stuff.

• Assign projects based on people's own interests.
• Take a gallery view of things
• Do not process information with your own interpretation
• Focus on the equity
