Organisational Savvy for Women

What makes an individual successful in the “political arena”? According to research successful politicians possess both mental empowerment (they “think and feel” positively about politics) and the skills to build a powerful reputation, network and presence within the organization.

Plenty of women excel at public relations, relationship building and conduct themselves with style and grace. All of this comes easy to women. Research shows that women are more intuitive, able to use both the right and left side of their brains simultaneously and more emotionally intelligent. They possess the skills that lead to success in the political arena.

So why do women struggle with “being political”?

Michelle Brailsford, founding partner of Jupiter Consulting Group, will codify the rules of the game to help you identify our power source, how you are perceived, and to read the organisational politics in situations. With this knowledge you will be able to develop strategies to gain power, build alliances, manage perceptions about yourselves and your teams and to be “political whilst maintaining your ethics”.

If you have ever:

• Been unable to sell a great idea

• Failed to receive credit for work well done

• Been underestimated or pigeon holed

• Felt left out of a key network

• Found you had a negative image or reputation within your company

• Been unable to uncover the hidden success criteria of the organisation

… you may have underestimated the impact politics can have on your success. This event will open your eyes and help you to be more successful in the political game.

Participants are welcome to network from 19:00 to 20:00.
The program begins at 20:00.
