"Organisational politics has always been an enigmatic subject. For some it is an unnecessary evil, for others it is synonymous with managerial adeptness. In a world of organisational upheaval, working with complex and diverse interests has become the norm.". "Politics is all about reconciling those agendas; it is central to the process of managing. This practical book redraws the nature of politics and managerial work in a way that enhances personal influence and organisational effectiveness. It is also a challenge to managers to use constructive politics to accelerate the process of decorporatising organisational structures so as to handle the uncertainties of a turbulent business world."--BOOK JACKET.
