  "I
love my job but I hate the politics"
Do these sentiments sound familiar?
- "Doing a good job is important to me, but the politics
get in the way"
- "Sometimes I struggle to wade through all the game playing"
- "If only I could get the support I need from others"
If so, you're not alone. Political skills cannot be ignored if you want
to be successful:
- 600 global managers found “navigating organisational politics”
to be a key issue with 65% saying it was either difficult or very
difficult. DDI 2006.
- “For an organisation to achieve success in today’s
complex environment, you cannot afford to turn a blind eye to
the political dimension of your business or service”. Prof.
Jean Hartley, Warwick Business School, 2006.
- “One of the most important determinants of managerial effectiveness
is success in influencing people” Dr Cecila Falbe 1992.
