Giving respect comes from heart. We should be open enough to observe the good things that a person has done to earn where he is.
We don't necessary need to like that person, but respecting him for his talent/virtues is an important virtue you need to possess to become a good human being with a positive attitude
Each person has a USP that you can learn and practice if possible or utilize the strength of that person towards greater good of the organization
So I don't entirely go with you should earn the respect. You should be open enough to respect someone, unless that person is too crooked and does unethical things that harm the company or you. Even if they are crooked, it might just be your perception of things.
Organization has key positions where few people are promoted to. You might like them and or you might hate them. But organization has promoted them to that position because they see something in them that you might not be privy of, so as part of your job, if you need to report to them or work with them or provide them with some information, it your duty to oblige and give. If you have trouble doing that, just focus that organization needs that to be done by you for organization, leaving the person alone, and act professionally.
You tend to bond better with the people you respect, so try to increase your span of respect. Where you cannot, you need to do the duty professionally and not to affect your, their, or org. goals at any cost. Hatred/jealousy/non-cooperation is not a health thing for your mind or body and does no good to you. It harms your career prospects and also dents the org. goals in someway, which company management will not appreciate and in the end, will affect you.
All living things earn respect and care from you. Try to keep a healthy mind and atmosphere at work location as well. Try to keep healthy relationships with your friends and family. This gives an aura of positivism around you and increases the longevity of your life. Healthy mind is important and giving respect and helping others is an important tool in your life.
