Description

Condition: Brand New

Format : Hardcover

In her two decades researching organizations, Michelle King has discovered that people who succeed possess a particularly unique skill: They know how workplaceswork. More specifically, to get ahead, they do not rely on the often generic and outdated written formal rules that for a century have defined the workplace. Instead, they have learned to gauge how they should behave and perform by becoming aware of informal (and unspoken) rules that exist just below the surface, rather than formal organizational guidelines. In this one-of-a-kind guide, King offers her proprietary framework based on over ten years of research and hundreds of employees who reached leadership positions. By focusing on five key areas — navigating informal networks; developing self-awareness and awareness of others; learning the skills you need to be adaptive to changing conditions; getting support for your next promotion; and finding meaning and fulfillment at workKing teaches every professional how to understand and make these systems work for them and achieve their career ambitions.
