Organizational politics has unanimously been accepted as omnipresent, but its variability according to the Indian context has not been much discussed. This study explores the employees’ perceptions of politics and the coping mechanisms they adopt to handle it. The idea of this comparative study is to understand and explore how the employee’s perception of organization politics and the coping mechanisms vary with changing sectors. Data was collected from a public sector company, a private sector company, and startups. The analysis of the data was done using a qualitative approach. The findings indicated that the employees’ perception of politics, their emotional status, and the coping mechanisms were different in different sectors.Keywords

Scholars have highlighted the significance of a diverse group on i ndivi dual ’s pe rformance and have argued in favor of diversity within a group, institution or organization. However, the impact of diversity within one’s networks has not bee n ex pl ored. Eve n within a diverse group, a student might approach someone coming from similar background. The present study attempted to explore, in the context of Indian management education, how does diversity within one’s networks impacts student’s academic performance. For the study, 107 students from one of the toptier and oldest institutes of management in India were selected. Their network, and diversity within their networks was mapped and calculated. The findings hinted that diversity within networks might not always result in a positive outcome.References
