Tattoo these three pieces of advice on your brain.

  • Replace the word “politics” with “awareness.”
  • Recognize that organizational awareness is all about communication and relationships.
  • Commit to using organizational awareness in a way that benefits everyone, not just you.

They are the best way to play — and win — the political game while staying true to yourself.
