The Unisa Directorate: Counselling and Career Development invites you to a If You Don’t Do Politics, Politics Will Do You: Navigating Office Politics Ethically and Successfully Career Talk.
Whether we like it or not, office politics are a reality we can't avoid—but we can learn to navigate them ethically, constructively, and effectively. Join acclaimed author and global consultant Niven Postma for an interactive conversation about how to recognise, understand, and ethically navigate organisational politics to thrive in your career. Niven will share practical insights and strategies on understanding organisational politics, using them to your advantage ethically, and building meaningful professional relationships.
To get the most out of this interactive session, it is important that you read Niven’s insightful article, "You Can't Sit Out Office Politics" from Harvard Business Review, as it will form the basis for discussion and reflection during the talk.
