Rating:  Summary: A real life saver! Review: As I'm struggling with office politics on a daily basis, this book really gives me a brand new perspective on how to deal with those "black art" experts and get ahead of the game without being acting like them. I would encourage anyone who is frustrated with office politics to read this book.
Rating:  Summary: Great Book Review: I can't say enough about this book. A true master piece. A real work of art.
Rating:  Summary: Only for starters Review: The ideas presented although sound are just too brief. For folks who have been working for years one can quote probably countless more scenarios that are left unexplored. For example, the topic of backstabbing was just touched within a solitary chapter near the end of the book. The fact is, the general rule still applies irregardless of whether one buys this book or not, 1) build a rock solid foundation, build your reputation and keep to your end of the bargain. Which is good and hard honest work. Unfortunately, that cant keep you alive in a politically rife environment. So identifying a political mindfield is just half of the battle. The next battle is, how to convince your peers to see the bigger picture and work towards a win/win situation where everyone succeeds. For a book entitled Positive Politics this area was never even mentioned. I'm giving it 2 stars, cause it's not worth the money I've paid for it, the book lacks depth.
Rating:  Summary: Great strategies to deal with workplace losers & pretenders Review: This book is full of helpful advice on how to take advantage of the positives and downplay the negatives of sharing you workplace sandpit with other people. A great read full of characters and scenarios everyone will recognise.
