Power Games: A Leader's Guide to Office Politics and Drama-Free Collaboration (Leadership for the Future) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Ever been backstabbed at work?

Hidden agendas. Gossiping colleagues. A boss who takes the credit for your work. Office politics drains even the most passionate leader — and pretending it doesn't exist only hands power to the people playing dirty.

Power Games is your playbook for navigating office politics and turning toxic power plays into trust and collaboration. Leadership futurist Zoë Routh introduces the Four Spheres of Power — Crown (Authority), Conch (Influence), Coin (Status) and Cauldron (Courage) — so you can decode who really holds sway and lead with influence instead of force.

In this fun, down-to-earth guide you'll learn to:

• Spot and manage power games — from subtle manipulation to outright bullying
• Recognise the shadow archetypes — the Tyrant, Bully, Manipulator, Fanatic and Gambler — and turn your blind spots into strengths
• Use practical team tools like the high-performing team bicycle to manage group dynamics
• Build a culture where power serves everyone — because leadership is a privilege, not a perk

Perfect for CEOs, senior executives and aspiring leaders ready to master office politics and change the game for good.
