Influence and Organizational Politics

Begin by understanding that organizational politics IS a reality in every company. Some people go to great lengths to say that they are not political and there are no organization politics in their company. That because it's usually viewed as negative "back stabbing" behaviors. We believe that organizational politics is just part of fabric of business life and to understand who and how companies make decisions can only make you more effective in doing your job.
