Surviving your firm's politics

You can't escape your firm's politics. But you can learn to become politically savvy. Here's how.

Ever feel like you are walking on eggshells at work, trying not to say or do the wrong thing? Or wish that you could take a break from the exhausting office politics?

In this episode, I am exploring how to navigate the inevitable politics within your firm. This is not about being 'political' which can be a polite term for someone who lacks substance, but about becoming politically savvy to get things done with minimum noise.

Listen to this episode to discover:

- How to identify the real movers and shakers in your firm, who may not always be the people with the most imposing job titles.

- The importance of self-control, and why you need to weigh up each situation carefully before speaking your mind.

- The risk of being part of the office grapevine
