Navigating Office Politics

Ahh office politics. Navigating office politics and team tensions can feel like tiptoeing through a minefield. But don't worry, we've got some cheeky yet actionable plays for you to try:

Play the Switzerland Card: Stay neutral in conflicts. Be the one who brings balance, not bias.  

Deploy the Compliment Grenade: Diffuse tension with genuine praise. A well-placed compliment can turn foes into allies faster than you can say, “Nice tie!”  

Spy for Insights: Keep your ears open and your eyes peeled. Understanding team dynamics helps you avoid pitfalls and steer clear of office drama.  

Remember, navigating office politics isn’t about playing dirty—it’s about playing smart. Keep your integrity intact and your humour at hand.
