When you’re the Top Dog - Three keys to leading like a professional
Judging by the way we elect some of our political leaders, you'd think that the three most important qualities for leadership are: popularity, an outgoing personality, and loyalty to your supporters.

How to Identify The Real Leaders Out There Among Us
How can you know a real leader when you see one? What do real leaders do that define them as leaders? Many people may consider themselves leaders, but in reality do not demonstrate principles of leadership and are not leaders at all. In today’s world there are many imposters posing as leaders. In order to assist you in identifying leaders in your company or organization, I have selected seven (7) actions that I believe real leaders take that define them as “real leaders.” Those seven (7) actions are:
6.3.2 Group empowerment: For-profit and NGO training activities
The new approach to skill development tends to be more overtly political in that its primary focus is to support collective action among groups of the poor and, particularly women, in order to achieve specific economic, social and political objectives. Self-help associations (SHA) have become one of the main institutional mechanisms for achieving this. There are two main types of SHA- work-related (i.e. trade or occupation) and community-based.

Office Politics: Survival of the Savvy
Tales of political sabotage, power plays and turf wars are part of any organization’s history. Nonetheless, political competence is the one skill everyone wishes to have more of — but no one talks about it.
Leadership Taboos Exploring Credibility
Leaders are charged with getting things done through others, so we allow them great leeway. We expect our leaders to exert power, manipulate people and engage in political gamesmanship. We acknowledge their luxury perks and generous benefits. After all, most work extremely long hours. When they tout the merits of equality, collaboration and work-life balance, it's often a case of "do as I say, not as I do."

The Political Failures of the Baby Boomers, and the Challenges for the Next Generation
The Boomers' failures are distributed uniformly from Right to Left. But given the liberal-leaning Boomers' original rise from the 1960s counterculture, their weak-kneed absorption into the partisan political establishment is most ironic. The generation that fought for free speech and the right to question authority now enforces strict political correctness and quashes political dissent from their tenured posts in academia.

How Much Of Our Lives Will We Let Them Take Over?
Sometimes I really have to wonder about the "political correctness" of California, one of my home states. In fact, in California, "political correctness" is really just a politically-correct term for "liberal insanity."

Poltical Savvy and Employees
Political savvy has little to do with one’s place in the hierarchy. All employees can use political savvy regardless of their position in the organization.

Political Savvy for the Average Employee
What can political savvy mean to the average employee in the workplace? If you have ever watched TV sitcom The Office you probably have a good idea of what political savvy is not about.
