Linda A. Hill and Kent Lineback, authors of “Being the Boss: The 3 Imperatives for Becoming a Great Leader,” describe the three types of networks you need to …
It's just a matter of finding your work place, if you watch the devils wear prada! thats exactly how the politics works, if your in a well paid jobs expect that, maybe not all and even to those small paying jobs as well but in totality what im saying is, the more good the company is the more the demanding it to you, just stay out of the devils sight! or just out of the devils workforce at all!
They should realistically address the Pecking Order in the Developmental Network. A Minority can find a mentor but the Good Old Boy Network is still very much alive!
"If you don't have power, you can't stand up for what is right." This is bang on, and the exact reason I encourage all my clients to increase their workplace politic savviness.
Harvard calls it office politics, the real world calls it kissing ass or brown nosing. And now you know why they’re not good for anybody, there is no glass ceiling it’s a bullshit game played against men and women. I seen it early on and decided not to play, so I started my own businesses and lived and worked more productive and happier overall.
Last rant: a few of my educated friends loathe tradesmen and small business owners. Regard them as thick and dumb. Some may well be but isn’t there an irony of the people who condemn them get paid highly to sit around and chat all day! Bizarre how they’re viewed so cleverly but I never see them do a proper days work!!! But that’s probably because I’m a working class oink deep down!
As Winston Churchill said, private enterprise is the road to freedom! In my corporate job, I see many of the ‘cunning ones’ plotting and never actually doing their job! They spend more time chatting, having meetings than doing their fu**ing job! Just do the job and no need to stir gossp! Yet these bastards are regarded so highly yet they’re actually the least mature and ethical! Weird world we live in.
And youtube a.i. suggested another video w/o my permission…..of Harvard B review…..the college of Wika & Salem Witch Trials…..wow. Nice view for them when no one picked their video except the MINDERS AT YOUTUBE.
Insightful discussion about the nature of working together with others, and the opportunities to learn and grow. It's true that our work yields experience yields knowledge, and our networks contribute to our growth. The distinction between the politics of a healthy organization vs a toxic was very interesting; having seen, and been a part of both in my career. Healthy organizations are political but the goals of the individuals working together are aligned with that of the company, and thus leadership empowers the contributors. Contrast this with toxic, self interest where non-leaders manage up well. In those environments you have to stay out of the way. Like it or not working professionals have to find a way to navigate these dynamics. Insights in discussions like this are helpful for reflecting on success, and failures, and strategizing for the future. Great discussion.
11:00 total professor speak. you need to understand and know how other people 'feel' about you. Jobs come and go nowadays, don't sweat it. Otherwise you will keep yourself up at nights worrying. Just go in and do your best, you can't change how people 'feel' about you, there can be an endless list of things outside your control as to why someone doesn't like you. Its not worth time investing in. if you are in management already then you have some power, that's a bit different, but even they have to deal with cases where a new employee is hired above them, and they just don't mesh. All of the stuff they are talking about is a theoretical framework, that's all it is.
Ever wonder what the true cost of politics is? https://youtu.be/7nRJsKp55Eo
You shouldn't have to play workplace politics. This world is sad and cold as fuck.

Dont be a dick, keep it real. The End.
Wish I was more formally educated in this subject prior to the start of my work career.

This is the most insightful advice you’ll ever get on office politics.
Great video. Thank you.
14:25 is the best teaching I got from this video
Lineback sure didn't look too happy being there.
Not gonna lie office politics is a crazy b that I never thought I'd encounter in University… Should be a course on it tbh
And youtube a.i. suggested another video w/o my permission…..of Harvard B review…..the college of Wika & Salem Witch Trials…..wow. Nice view for them when no one picked their video except the MINDERS AT YOUTUBE.
I am curious that could I apply everything the video has mentioned into software company as a programmer
How exciting.
I fucking hate office politics
I haven't been able to sleep because of it
Douche bags are trying to take me down
I hate them
Sounds like a ringing endorsement of unionization! Employee power!!
too much talking from Linda. she is overly dominating the conversation.
What if your boss and his boss is a cunt?
Sara green is freakin hot !
Linda Hill is freakishly smart and eloquent.
The women in the green is very intelligent and helpful and to the point.
I haven't had an office job but from a bird's eye view being observant is more important than being a talker.
IF someone is a Commie you lay in wait after work & kick their ass
Very insightful. I agree with Linda, politics can be used for good, you have to have a strategic plan to navigate it.
Why play a rigged game its best to fly under the radar and avoid everyone as much as posible
unfortunately, they are so true. speaking with my experience.
Great advise on organisational politics. Thank you.
