There are some workshops for our OD going on. I’m the most qualify person in the team and I got snubbed from attending the sessions (despite most team members asking for me to attend and acknowledging I’m the best person for the job). Senior management chose the most junior member to attend. What would you think of it?

You were snubbed? Sounds a little entitled tbh.
There are typically many factors that go into a decision like that, and we don't always love when they don't go our way.
If you're that offended, I would suggest you approach your manager professionally and ask for clarification and insight into how to be considered in the future.
Just because someone more junior was selected, it doesn't negate their position or their abilities.

This happened to me recently. It’s a hard pill to swallow so I feel you! Trying to understand “why” isn’t getting me anyplace productive. I am trying to live with it and understand that we are all human. We all are trying our best even if we don’t agree on what that is. Everything for a reason, too. Maybe they are trying to excite the junior professional.

Completely and totally miserable at my firm and just need a space to vent because my friends are tired of hearing about it.
