Organisational politics is one of the least openly talked about, yet pervasive realities of organisational life that can either help or hinder personal, collective or organisational performance.

There is significant research that confirms negative political behaviour is not only prevalent in organisations that experience high levels of ambiguity, complexity or change; but increases when it is not proactively and positively managed, irrespective of the structure. Which typically results in low team performance and morale, and high instances of absence and stress related illnesses.

The Political Influencing Workshop provides practical tools and techniques that enable thempeopel to become more politically astute. It does this by positively re-positioning organisational politics as an advanced influencing skill that anyone can develop. Knowledge which enables people to become more confident and effective when working across different types of political landscapes to deliver inter-dependent goals, projects, processes or initiatives that cut across organisational boundary lines.

People attending The Political Influencing Workshop can expect to leave with:

  • A positive appreciation of workplace politics and how it can be used as an enabler

  • An understanding of their own political intelligence™ level and how others might view them politically

  • An understanding of how political they perceive their own organisation to be

  • The ability to identify and influence different types of ‘political animal’ in their organisation
