Assignment : Discussion-Political Actions and Effective Management
Politics relates to who gets what, when, and how. Politicking bridges at least three other topics in management and organizational behavior: decision making, leadership, and power. Individuals often perceive organizational political actions as primarily negative. This is unfortunate because political incompetence, political naiveté, and the inability or unwillingness to effectively perform required political tasks are all sources of management failure.
Using the Argosy University online library resources, locate at least three different scholarly sources on power, politics, and conflict in the workplace. Discuss the following:
Can you be an effective manager in a large organization and avoid politics? Explain.
Does politicking always cause dysfunction in an organization's operations? Explain.
Support your positions by citing scholarly references.
Write your initial response in a minimum of 300 words. Apply APA standards to citation of sources.
Do the following when responding to your peers:
Read all the posts from your peers.
Respond to feedback on your posting and provide feedback to other students on their ideas.
Provide substantive comments by contributing new, relevant information or quotes from course reading, Web sites, or other sources; building on the remarks or questions of others; or sharing practical examples of key concepts from your experiences, professional or personal.
Make sure your writing is clear, concise, and organized; demonstrates ethical scholarship in accurate representation and attribution of sources; and displays accurate spelling, grammar, and punctuation.
