Political Savvy Advantage™ Seminars
The Political Savvy seminar is dynamic and highly participative. The workshop can handle any group from 8 to 35 participants. The seminar utilizes powerful interactive excercises to uncover the link between the "savvy" principles and the development of ethical and effective leadership practices. This seminar employs powerful interactive simulations and dialogue stimulating exercises using comparisons with research based ‘politically savvy benchmarks’. They dramatically address the relationships between leadership and organization politics. The exercises re-ignite the spark to make a difference. The principles such as 'the 51% guide', 'agenda linking,' and ' credibility pathing' provide the means to build a critical mass of support within the organization to move important ideas forward. The political savvy dimension of leadership includes a specific influence mapping tool that serves to create an overall influence strategy. This strategy greatly leverages the interpersonal skills such as negotiation, persuasion, communication, active listening and emotional intelligence. Interpersonal skills within a political savvy strategy thus become a great one-two punch in impacting the organization. Lively debates ensue throughout the seminars. They typically bring out the critical importance of both quantitative and qualitative skills in being a leader. They also show the importance of such issues as trust and networks. See why the core aspects of the seminar and book have been used at Harvard, Yale, MIT, Wharton, the FBI Academy and other universities to prepare their graduates for success in the new realities of business. Corporations such as Xerox, Victoria’s Secret, Citigroup, Morgan Stanley, TIAA-CREF, Lockheed Martin, New York Life, Credit Swiss Boston, and others around the world are also beginning to use the seminar and book to gear their best and brightest to succeed given the enormous challenges they face.

The true political savvy individual never compromises ethics to justify a means to an end." Kelly Morrison, Internal Customer Support Manager |
