One of those rare hbr collections where content from different sources cohesively comes together into one good book. Enjoyed this thoroughly. What makes it interesting is the way office politics is portrayed in an opportunistic way. Even more important is the proscribed approaches to how to deal with various scenarios, and how to make it a win-win in most cases. One aspect I loved also is the way diversity and inclusion have been bought in. The author talks about a boss as a ‘she’ in most cases. That’s such an ignored aspect of many books and even our perceptions.
