Just when you think you know your way around your company’s politics, your firm merges or acquires a new organization, you have a new boss, or change jobs. Now what?
"One of the penalties for refusing to participate in politics is that you end up being governed by your inferiors." - Plato
Join us for a panel discussion about tactics and strategies needed to effectively navigate in a changing political landscape. When new personalities intertwine, anything can happen. If you want to influence your career growth and credibility, you need specific strategies to help you adapt to new decision-makers. Or perhaps you emerge as a new leader within the recently changed structure. How can you quickly identify and aptly maneuver the politics of a new environment? Good planning, anticipating hidden agendas, and understanding the power of your ideas and the quality of your work can help you succeed during times of change.
