Congratulations! If you have got a job as a result of the tips from Book 1 and 2 of this series, Book 3 here is where your career success really begins. This book is also for anyone if you are feeling stressed and frustrated in your job due to the political tactics played by your colleagues. As long as you are in employment, workplace politics are inherent. Like the rules in a game of sports, politics in the office are the rules. In Tony Robbins' latest book, Money: Master the Game, he has a whole section dedicated on the need to know the rules of the game before you get into the game. In other words, in any situation, you must know the rules of the game. Now that you know the importance of the rules, can you afford to ignore office politics and expect your work environment to be smooth sailing? Learn to dance with workplace politics and see how the following will smoothly flood into your life: - career advancement on a fast track - circle of friends expands - confidence level goes up sky high - get things done smoothly - enjoying your work - gaining more influence or power You can choose to neglect office politics but be prepared to be haunted with 10 negative lifestyles: - being treated unfairly - being bullied - being sidelined - you do the hardwork but someone takes the credit - you get the blame for mistakes done by others - you never see the light for your job promotion - you are the subject of gossips - feel more stress - feel that workplace is like hell - you get additioinal workload while other colleagues have more free time, drinking coffee. The devastating negativity will affect your self-esteem, confidence, health, happiness and the meaning of life. You can prevent or stop this nonsense now with the guide from this book. In Office Politics 101 you will learn: - the fundamental reason why office politics exist - 5 major causes of the political game - 3 techniques that are almost a cure-all for any types of office politics. - how to identify more than 30 situations when the dirty tricks are being played - simple yet effective tips to neutralize the situation Here is a sample of the 30 situations: Under tip #28..."But I promised them that you will do it..". does this sound familiar to you?...Such people know that you have a weakness or soft spot for not fulfilling promises. This will prompt them to use this weakness in order to get a job done by you. As a consequence, you are trapped by other people's promise under your name. If you failed, it's your fault. If you succeeded, they will probably take the credit. If you didn't agree on doing a task, don't do it. If you didn't deliver, it's not your fault. It's the person who made the promise whose reputation will be tinged. Inform your boss or the management if someone promises that you allegedly claimed a task. Does it mean that you have to be a 'bad' person to thrive in a world of lying, backstabbing and dirty tricks environment? The answer is a big NO. Embrace it as if you are learning kung fu. It is for self defence and not to harm others. To be a black belt holder, it will take many years of practice. The earlier you start, the earlier you become an expert. Grab your copy now and see the transformation in your career.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From It’s All Politics Like business in general, politics is not a spectator sport. You cannot afford to be apolitical at work if you have any aspirations for advancement. The only way to avoid politics is to avoid people—by finding an out-of-the-way corner where you can do your job. Of course, it’s the same job you’ll likely be doing for the rest of your career. In any job, when you reach a certain level of technical competence, politics is what makes all the difference with regard to success. At that point, it is indeed all politics. Everyday brilliant people take a backseat to their politically adept colleagues by failing to win crucial support for their ideas. Sometimes politics involves going around or bending rules, but more typically it’s about positioning your ideas in a favorable light, and knowing what to say, and how and when to say it.… Keep in mind that people benefit from perpetuating the image of politics as something you either know or you don’t. Ignore them. Political acumen is largely learned from observation. And then it’s a matter of practice, practice, practice. When a journalist suggested that golfing great Gary Player was very lucky, he replied: “It’s funny, but the more I practice, the luckier I get.” The same is true of politics. An indispensable guide to mastering the ins and outs of office politics—the single most important factor in getting ahead in your career As management professor and consultant Kathleen Reardon explains in her new book, It's All Politics, talent and hard work alone will not get you to the top. What separates the winners from the losers in corporate life is politics. As Reardon explains, the most talented and accomplished employees often take a backseat to their politically adept coworkers, losing ground in the race to get ahead—sometimes even losing their jobs. Why? Because they’ve failed to manage the important relationships with the people who can best reward their creativity and intelligence. To determine whether you need a crash course in Office Politics 101, ask yourself the following questions: Do I get credit for my ideas? Do I know how to deal with a difficult colleague? Do I get the plum assignments? Do I have a mentor? Do I say no gracefully and pick my battles wisely? Am I in the loop? Reardon has interviewed hundreds of employees, from successful veterans to aspiring hopefuls, examining why some people who work hard and effectively at their jobs fall behind, while those who are adept at “reading the office tea leaves” forge ahead. Being politically savvy doesn’t mean being unethical or devious. At heart, it’s about listening to and relating to others, and making choices that advance everyone’s goals. Like it or not, when it comes to work, it’s all politics. And politics is all about knowing what to say, when to say it, and who to say it to.

Book excerpt: Now in its second edition, here is one of the first and only issue-based nonpartisan guides to contemporary American politics. It’s a very exciting time in American politics. Voter turnout in primaries and caucuses across the nation has shattered old records. More than ever, in this election year people are paying attention to the issues. But in a world of sound bites and deliberate misinformation and a political scene that is literally colored by a partisan divide—blue vs. red—how does the average educated American find a reliable source that’s free of political spin? What You Should Know About Politics . . . But Don’t breaks it all down, issue by issue, explaining who stands for what, and why, whether it’s the economy, the war in Iraq, health care, oil and renewable energy sources, or climate change. If you’re a Democrat, a Republican, or somewhere in between, it’s the perfect book to brush up on a single topic or read through to get a deeper understanding of the often mucky world of American politics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 2020 presidential primaries are on the horizon and this third edition of Elaine Kamarck's Primary Politics will be there to help make sense of them. Updated to include the 2016 election, it will once again be the guide to understanding the modern nominating system that gave the American electorate a choice between Donald Trump and Hilary Clinton. In Primary Politics, political insider Elaine Kamarck explains how the presidential nomination process became the often baffling system we have today, including the “robot rule.” Her focus is the largely untold story of how presidential candidates since the early 1970s have sought to alter the rules in their favor and how their failures and successes have led to even more change. She describes how candidates have sought to manipulate the sequencing of primaries to their advantage and how Iowa and New Hampshire came to dominate the system. She analyzes the rules that are used to translate votes into delegates, paying special attention to the Democrats' twenty-year fight over proportional representation and some of its arcana. Drawing on meticulous research, interviews with key figures in both parties, and years of experience, this book explores one of the most important questions in American politics—how we narrow the list of presidential candidates every four years.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 21 Dirty Tricks at Work is about lies. The type of underhand, pernicious and downright Machiavellian scheming that goes on in business every day. An estimated £7.8bn is lost each year in the UK alone though unnecessary and counter-productive office politicking. But 21 Dirty Tricks at Work is also a book of hope. It exposes the classic manoeuvres and gives practical advice on dealing with them to the vast majority who just want to do a good day's work. 21 Dirty Tricks at Work provides you with all the information you need to spot negative tactics and self-interested strategies. It shows you how to spot the games frequently being played and how to come out with your credibility intact and your sanity preserved. So, if you are fed-up of being on the receiving end of constant backbiting and skulduggery from workmates, join hands with the authors and get Machiavelli on the run!
