Informal ways in Formal organizations

Favouritism in formal organisations is ever present in India. We do not know how to be formal in formal organisations.When we are performing roles in formal organisations, we tend to take decisions based which are not logical. Why? This is because we have really not learnt the prerequisites to our roles. Many use the capacities of their statuses to show favouritism, we manoeuvre situation in benefit of recruiting persons of our choice, with the result, we choose mediocre persons(our friends or relatives). Incompatible persons thus enter the organization.And these mediocre persons make the organisation dysfunctional, as they are not chosen as per they capacities. Even we get best proposals to alter our organisations,we would ultimately succumb to favouritism. This applies at the larger levels too, when the politics of decision making goes on. We use this kind of manoeuvring more diligently and adopt more hidden ways to bypass the rules of a formal organisation to bring in our favourite persons. With the result, we have a mediocre organization. Here rules are never meant to be applied, only by-passed. So we have mediocrity in our government, semi-government organisations. But in private organisations, favouritism is not adopted; only compatible persons are chosen for given roles. Thus private organizations do well while government organizations fail on the long run. We have private schools which turn out good students with good education. While government schools fail miserably. Private hospitals run well, while government hospitals spread diseases. But private organizations cater to the needs of the upper most class or the rich. The average citizen (who is poor) has no chance of getting good health benefits or good education. This is India.
