Flattery, favors, and frequent compliments all tend to win people (32) Leaders, naturally, like those who like them and are more apt to let those they are fond of influence them.
F or their part, followers think that (33) on the boss’s good side gives them some measure of job security. Indeed, a recent study indicated (34) successful ingratiators gained a 5% edge over other employees in performance evaluations. This kind of margin by (35) won’t get someone ahead, but in a competitive market, it might (36) tip the scale toward one of two people up for a promotion.

Gratuitous ingratiation can create a subtle shift in a leader’s attitude toward power.
