ACCELERATE Programme - Mastering Organisational Politics

Description

There are a lot of misconceptions around the perceived dark world of organisational politics. Simply put, career driven people have been inconceivably more willing to engage with individuals and networks near and far in order to grease the wheels of their business and career objectives. It is short of naïve to think that the corporate world is an even playing field and that your work alone will get you noticed. So, wouldn’t it be great to be able to negotiate that most nebulous of concepts, the corporate culture? What if you discovered that there was such a thing as good politics? Every organisation has a political climate and avoiding it is not an option if your career is to survive and thrive. In this ground-breaking module, cultural intelligence is broken down into its constituent parts in order for you to be able to truly engage with the world of organisational politics, both constructively and authentically.
