In today's organizations, career success depends more on political skill-the ability to influence, motivate, and win support from others-than on almost any other characteristic. Political Skill at Work delivers the how to influence at work, not just the what.
The authors of this innovative study explore how people high in political skill are more successful at getting hired, building a reputation, and establishing leadership. Anyone interested in personal or professional development will find this book worthwhile.
