Office, workplace, Peer politics

Politics is a basic human nature it exists everywhere throughout the globe in one form or the other.

How to stay away from politics

There is an urgent need to train ourselves to diplomatically stay away from getting trapped in the hornets’ nest

Human being as social animal

Human beings are social animals this is true but this trait of our species turns challenging for others when this social animal starts forming political groups at the work places thereby creating difficulties for the hard and honest workers since those indulging in such vested politics are only concerned towards advancing their personal agendas.

Politics is good if genuinely practiced

It is said that politics is good yes that's cent percent true if practiced genuinely for without the active interference of politics it is difficult to voice for ones basic rights but at the same time the same politics turns unfavorable if driven by personal motives and for the purpose of pushing ones own agendas for creating certain favors and advantageous situations for the benefit of those indulging in such politics.

Hard working individuals face the challenges

It is difficult for the ordinary hard working individual to sustain such discouraging environment who is only more concerned in religiously fulfilling his duties and expects job security for himself and his dependent family members in return .

Hidden agenda behind politics

Those who indulge in such politics have their own hidden purpose of creating a environment for increasing their personal power and influence over the workers and the management so that they can control the overall activities of the organization.

Pretending as best friends of all

These people are not concerned or bothered about the benefit of the management nor of the staff but they pretend to be the best friends of all.

Lobbying and infighting

This results in creation of lobbies and ultimately different lobbies start a difficult to sustain scenario of constant infighting to secure power over the other groups and within the same group also.

Staying alert

Nothing much can be done apparently to curb such activities by the worker but what is important is to stay alert and not falling prey to their hidden motive and also not allowing them to use ones position for their personal advantage in any manner.

Isolating the troublemakers

The best way is to form friendship and alliances with office colleagues this helps in isolating those who are trying to indulge in any political activities.

Keep proper record of your own work to defend yourself

Simultaneously it is also suggested to keep record of ones own work in a proper way so that one can prove his innocence if required and come out clean in front of the management if the situation demands any proof.

Avoid direct reaction

Also it is extremely helpful not in reacting directly to their political moves instead it is better to confront them privately and individually seeking answer to their behavior this will also make them weak in front of others .

Protecting ones identity

With little acts of staying alert and defensive in order to protect ones own identity it becomes easily possible to keep the intentions of such people with vested interest at bay.
