Abstract	This book is designed to help people develop an action plan to enhance their situation at work. Part 1 focuses on political behavior at work as a key to advancement. It discusses assessing career setbacks and recovery from them. Subsequent sections focus on the following areas of self-study that are necessary to enable the individual to manage office politics: (1) interpersonal relationships; (2) thinking politically; (3) the grapevine; (4) competition among work colleagues; (5) appropriate assertion; and (6) personality types. Two recurring situations and the wrong and right ways to handle the political aspects are described. Part 2 offers analyses of situations in which an individual participates regularly at work where political behavior is a natural part of the process: attending meetings, experiencing delegation, and going to social events involving work colleagues. Part 3 focuses on political skills development. Subject areas are conflict resolution, life stages recognition, identifying hindering people and gaining support. The book concludes with a list of tips and 13 references for further reading. (YLB)
