Is it wise to maintain a neutral position at work to avoid power-struggles?

Have you ever been labeled as Switzerland when you avoid a confrontation of opinions at work?  Every one has an opinion or a position on an issue yet we refrain from exposing ourselves for fear of judgment or discrimination, or maybe we just want to minimize our differences so that we can get along better with co-workers or management.  However, many would say that asserting our position and taking stance is what sets us apart.  How can we do this at work while maintaining unity and respect from our peers and management.

YES. IT IS MORE IMPORTANT TO STAY NEUTRAL WHILE AT WORK TO AVOID CONFLICT AND PROMOTE AND MOTIVATE EACH INDIVIDUAL FOR BETTER ENVIRONMENT

One should be always unbiased everywhere. Being neutral has its advantages and limitations and it can be practiced up to a limit only.

Sometimes Yes and sometimes No.

Actually, it varies from situation to situation... Being at a key position we have to see what is in the interest of the company or the organization we are working in.

Either you remain neutral or be active the company unity and integrity must remain maintained and there should not be any compromise on it.

Yes and no. Again, it depends.

We learned well that we were told to be impartial in dealing with anyone at work. But what if YOU are the employer and you have a section head who is always against company plans and actions, but not doing his job? What if he seem to be all too professional yet just eloquent with words, poor in action? 

Best decisions come when one is on the field, so to see what the real scenario is.

Cheers!
