Some people are willing to take unfair advantage of others to get what they want. But it doesn't mean that you have to play dirty, too. There are ways that you can use "good" politicking to advance your career or to win support for your projects.
Next week, you can explore whether it's better to "go public" early with an innovative proposal, or to stay "under the radar" until you have fully developed your idea.
