Managing Office Politics
Plan of action
If you don’t see any politics in your office then maybe you are not looking hard enough. Once you have three people you are likely to have politics. People in the workplace jostle for a variety of perceived benefits and resources such as ego, promotion, status, image, and even desks and offices! Office politics is not necessarily a hindrance, indeed managed properly it can boost the effectiveness of the organisation by harnessing the energy and using it to drive performance and even morale.
