Work Would Be Great If It Weren't For the People
Making Office Politics Work for You
Hyperion, 1999
Was ist drin?
The clue to office politics is understanding that everything matters, you are always making an impression. So watch your behavior, your relationships, your work, your style...and your back.
Recommendation
Let’s face it: We all want to climb the corporate ladder. The trick is to climb without appearing to do so. Everyone has an agenda. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to uncover hidden agendas and use them to your advantage. Ronna Lichtenberg knowingly decodes office politics as usual. Her book addresses time management, starting a new job and ending an old one, gossip, and business travel. The book is easy to read and inexpensive. If there were such a thing as a "beach business book," this would certainly classify. However, clever though it is, it doesn’t cover any new territory. If you’re already a top-ranking executive, you probably know everything here. getAbstract recommends this book for those who are still on their way up the ladder or those who may have forgotten some of the rules for making it to the top.
