Are you caught up in the cobwebs of corporate politics? If you are: what is your immediate reaction towards it? Will it affect you? Will you let it affect you? Shall you choose to ride the tide and go with the flow? Or shall you just shrug it off and just learn how not to affect you. Politicking requires some form of mastery and sometimes it clouds your integrity just because you have to. Power is really blinding. In politicking, sometimes there is no God..people in position plays the God. Like they made you and you have to obey every whims and commands that these people would ask you to.
In reality, these are the type of people you encounter within the corporate world:
The Lazy - does nothing but kiss the Gods. Puts the best face in front of the Gods who appear to know it all when in fact, just does not know anything. The only task these type of people know are to get other people's task to impress and just let the people below do the work for him/her.
The God - who acts and plays God like this person owns the entire company. The epitome of corruption in the corporate world. Sucks from the powers that be. Doesn't care about the people around as long as he/she knows the strategy to be in post and somewhat be relevant to the company. They would, most often, like to convey to the people to command respect and authority.
The Powers that be - well, they are the fronts to the heavens. they are really who runs the entire company. There are great people here but there are also not-so-great ones. Their decisions put the company forward, or may put the company in a rut.
The servants - alas, these are the people who truly makes the company run while the first three are busy with the politics. They do the work that the lazy hands down, they catch the ire of the Gods if the Lazy are not fronting, and most of the time, these are the people who cleans up the mess. However good these people are, they are still, never, ever gonna go up if the first two view them up as threats.
Sad but true fact, the existence of politics pave the way for corruption and abuse of authority.
In the cobwebs of corporate politics, do you view it as beauty or bastard-ly? Are you considering to ride the bandwagon just to secure your job?
