HOW TO OVERCOME THE POLITICS IN THE CORPORATE OR SOFTWARE OFFICES

How to overcome the politics at work or politics in the corporate or software offices?

To be honest if we speak no one really loves politics in the office premises. But in the reality the corporate companies are the actual political organizations by its nature which boost up in making the political environment to survive and thrive at work.

It is very important for us to understand why our own buddies or colleagues play politics with us, and how we can avoid it to secure our position or job in the company. If you like it or not? If you want to make an impact in your own firm to stable yourself you have to be learning how to play the game in favor of you to overcome the politics played on you. 

Basically, politics in your office environment will be played on you/someone by other employees because of the following reasons:

1. Insecurity feelings of your fellow/superior person about your/victim adequate or extraordinary skill set
2. Envy on your/victim talent, experience, professionalism, on floor behavior, culture, nature of work etc.
3. By nature, most of the female employees they will be nervous and weak in playing the politics with others but on the other hand few lady employees who were savvy in the job for longer period can understand the politics well and can play politics in reverse.
4. If you/victim having a great career growth in short period of time when compared to other fellow employees with the same level or even higher level, this also brings the chance for the other fellows to play politics
5. If the fellow employees have inadequate skill set or if they have no job at the work then just to pass the time they mostly play with the emotions of the other fellow employees on discrimination of C,C,C, region etc.

Only GROUND RULE for anyone to overcome the office politics or to strengthen your political prowess:

1. You/victim have to understand the weird/unexpected situations happening against you/victim in the office by the colleagues/boss’s with no no delay & try to handle it with gently and professionally
2. You/victim should be emotionally strong or should improve the emotional intelligence to overcome it and more over You/victim should have NO expectation until you achieve anything what ever you want to become else, it leads to STRESS.

Note: If you keep on thinking on these office politics at a personal level it will leads to WORK STRESS

STRESS  =  EXPECTATION - REALITY

For example:

1. If you expect 10 out of 10 on a scale 1-10 and then in reality you achieved only 4 then your stress level is 6 (10-4) which is high on a scale 1-10.
2. If your expectation is 0 (nothing) and you achieved 5 in reality then your stress level is zero and you will be very happy because you got 5 in return in reality. 

 I would like draw few lines from the famous quote:

MORE THE GAP, MORE THE STRESS, SO EXPECT NOTHING AND ACCEPT EVERYTHING.......
