Company Politics

Politics in general have no place in my heart. Therefore, what I'm going to blog here in this post is very strictly my own opinion and should be left at that!

I'm very disappointed with the way things seem to work in  the private sector as well as the government as I would guess a vast number of people aren't as well. What I don't like is this form of checks and balances we have where we're divided between 2 parties. Both parties have their own agenda, one that benefits them. You see this, not only in the government, but in corporations and businesses everywhere. These 2 parties are so one sided that nothing gets done! There's no moving forward. The biggest problem is that, from the start, the president of whatever is to be on one side or the other.

POLITICAL GRAVEYARD

It's time to put politics behind and move on. Yes, someone is going to get their feelings hurt. Yes, someone is not going to get their way. But, it's time we stop looking out for ourselves and start looking out for the best interest of the whole company right up to the underdog. Putting politics to the grave and moving on involves having the right people in the right place. There are many many good people out there, but that doesn't mean they're the right people. The right people need to be in line with the vision of the company. Some are dreamers and some are doers, but they work together for the good of the business. I've heard it said that "committees" are vultures. They nitpick everything...and...nothing gets done! Instead, go with teams. Teams work together. They have to, because if they don't the team loses.

Put politics to the grave before it puts you there!
