About this listen

The modern working world is a dangerous place, where game-playing, duplicity and sheer malevolence are rife. Do talent and hard work count for nothing? Is politics everything? In this fascinating exposé, Oliver James reveals the murky underside of modern office life. With cutting-edge research and eye-opening interviews, he highlights the nasty practices that propel people to the top and shows how industries and cultures are fostering this behaviour.

He then divulges strategies and techniques for not only surviving but thriving in these difficult environments. With the right mindset, you can distinguish and deal with toxic and overpromoted colleagues, charm your way through interviews and use office politics to your advantage. Office Politics will overthrow your perceptions of office life and set you on a new path to success.

I think it's a shame that books like this are necessary, but in my work experience, they are, so many thanks to the author for a good read!

Useful read for non-political people

This is the worst office politics book I've ever read or listened to. This book is severely lacking in detail in how to implement office politic strategies and the examples given are very cliche and obvious.
