下面是阅读office politcs 的部分摘要
Every organization has its share of political drama: Personalities clash. Agendas compete. Turf wars erupt. It can make you crazy if you're trying to keep your head down and get your job done.
How can you do that without crossing over to the dark side? By acknowledging that power dynamics and unwritten rules exist—and by constructively navigating them. "Politics" needn't be a dirty word.
You will get better at:
Building relationships with difficult people
Gaining allies and influencing others
Wrangling the resources you need
Moving up without ruffling feathers
Dealing with the boss's pet
Coping with office bullies and cliques
Claiming credit when it's due
Avoiding power fames and petty rivalries
Collaborating with competitive peers
Every office is political. You can't escape politics—no matter what your role or function.
You can weather—and even participate in –politics without selling your soul. It's about being constructively political—understanding personal dynamics among colleagues, working together for mutual advantage, and ultimately focusing on the good of the enterprise.
It's easy to use politics as an excuse for a lack of achievement or an outlet for your frustration. But it's a lot more effective to use politics as a way to get things done.
Here are some common themes you'll notice throughout:
Question your reaction: When people appear to be playing political games, we often think we know their motives, but sometimes we're off the mark. Step back and reevaluate: What else could be driving the behavior? Maybe it's not as vengeful as it seems—or even intentional.
Try removing yourself from the equation: Everybody brings her own quirks, worries, and stresses to work. What you assume is a personal attack may have absolutely nothing to do with you.
Take charge of your fate: Even if the playing field isn't level, you'll accomplish little by complaining about it. Assume responsibility for your progress. Don't give your manager and other any reason to dismiss you as a whiner.
Keep your cool: Office bullies and other game players win every time they see they've rattled you. Never give them that satisfaction—you'll just perpetuate the problem. Stay composed, and they'll lose their power.
Don't try to be the boss's pet—be everyone's pet. That is, devote your energy to being a terrific employee and colleague. Focus on positive pursuit like performance, growth, and fulfillment.
