    Office Politics

    This was a very useful article. Having only recently joined my organisation, I am just beginning to figure out the politics (and networks) in terms of who things operate. This has reminded me of the steps I need to take in order to get the results I need with my own projects.

    CHANGE MANAGEMENT OF YOURSELF

    I believe this is a very good lead up to integrate yourself to change management in organizations. I'm a current professor at MBA programs in my country, Colombia. I?m planning to integrate these valuable readings to my programs.
    I?ve been using Bnet for a couple of years and I find it valuable.

    Gender in the workplace

    I really object to the statement,
    For now, the onus is on the newcomers to the inner circle of power?women?to strike a fine balance.
    The onus is on everyone -- managers, executives, employees, consultants -- to create a gender-neutral workplace.
    You don't have to be a woman to understand gender politics and find ways to remain PC.
    Think before you act, check your cultural biases as you would with any human being you work with, and bring compassion to the workplace for different personality types.
    Personality types and cultural assumptions can drive office politics through the roof.

    RE: Coping with Office Politics

    Very useful article. Building trusted allies for moral support however seems iffy; workplace equations are ever changing, I guess the best ally is your internal strength.
