Office politics is such an interesting subject that people want to talk about it. But very few want to participate in it.
How often have you experienced that good ideas and projects that make perfect sense don't go through, only because of office politics?
So in this episode, Niven and I discuss why office politics is important and how to approach it with a positive mindset.
