About this listen

Get ahead, Gain influence, Get what you want

Office politics are an unavoidable fact of life in every workplace. To accomplish your personal and business goals, you must learn to successfully play the political game in your organization. Whether you are a new player or a seasoned veteran, Secrets to Winning at Office Politics can help you increase your personal power without compromising your integrity or taking advantage of others. This smart, practical guide shows you how to stop wasting energy on things you can't change and start taking steps to get what you want.

Written by an organizational psychologist and corporate consultant, Marie G. McIntyre's Secrets to Winning at Office Politics uses real-life examples of political winners and losers to illustrate the behaviors that contribute to success or failure at work. You will be shown techniques for managing your boss more effectively, improving your influence skills, changing the way you are perceived, and dealing with difficult people. Using these proven strategies for political success, you will then be able to create a "Political Game Plan" that outlines the steps necessary to accomplish your own individual goals.

Excellent book as Author analysed office politics from multiple angles. It is clearly & well explained with real/realistic examples which one can easily relay to. While the negative side of politics is well known, she made me realised politics could help collaboration and balance the society if used genuinely with the right mind set. I hope the Author would write a version for teenagers. May be “Secrets to Winning at School Politics”?

Every worker should read this book

I am off to buy a physical copy! Life changing information. This book should be part of standard curriculum at school! As a parent I plan and raising my children with these tips to prepare them for the work. Really opened my eyes to the reality of the workplace.
