Becoming Politically Savvy
Your Challenge: Do you have trouble discerning the political forces in your organization? Can you engage them favorably to increase your likelihood of successful progress? How can you avoid the pitfalls of adverse interests?
Immediate Answer: Learn what the forces are and who’s generating them so you can be more adroit. Politics are a reality in any organization or anytime two people get together, whether you like it or not. Learn how to work with that reality rather than deny it with Nova’s practices.
