Ask yourself:

How do I help my manager achieve team goals?
Am I hitting my goals / KPIs?
What am I doing to make my managers job easier?
Am I doing anything to cause tension / friction at work?


Action items:

Ask your manager how you can help
Discuss your wins in 1:1's or team meetings (when appropriate)
Ask for feedback from your leader and team (if it makes sense, usually does)
Look for areas where you make something easy for your leader or team
Ensure the goals, individually and team are clear and have deadlines
Is the entire team being held accountable for the same things?
Volunteer to lead projects, meetings, assignments
Keep it about you and how you can improve and do better vs them
Stay positive and keep out of team gossip
Be honest
Stay motivated and working hard
Try to assume good intent vs malicious intent
Have an honest, transparent conversation with your leader in a 1:1
If you are being favorited, try to share the love aka praise, projects, attending conferences, classes, etc.
