In this video we're going to talk about why ignoring corporate politics makes you the target, what you should do instead, and the only way to insulate yourself from toxic coworkers and their drama.

But I don't believe in allies in a workplace. Just like there is no friend in a workplace.
Regardless if you believe it or not doesn’t displace the reality. I know we all go in with a strong moral compass but the workplace is complex. Even if you are the smartest and brightest and loyal there will be that one narcissist that will sabotage you thus sabotaging the whole business so they can get a minute of glory. If you care about the mission you will have to be uncomfortable. Great minds will perish if you don’t know how to handle shit people. So what is the mission? If it is to accomplish your purpose in life, then you will have to fight through the BS. Doesn’t matter if your idea will save the world, jealous people don’t care.
A smaller number from each can become longer term friends; it is better to keep professional hierarchy and boundaries in mind as standard.
Do your work, work hard, listen to your manager. Develop a good relationship with anyone. That’s it. Nobody can control anybody’s mouths.
Forgive in leave it in God’s Hands, believe in Him with all your heart and He will repay:
“Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave it to the wrath of God, for it is written, “Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord.” To the contrary, “if your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink; for by so doing you will heap burning coals on his head.”
Romans 12:19-21
@@EYRM9 amen.
Well guys, I have a story to share, how bad things can be at work, specially if your manager does not want to retire and how he can destroy your career by badmouthing
The thing is you can skip 'hardwork part', good relationship with manager and colleagues and some work is enough. And the most important thing all these good relationships will not protect you the other day.
"listen to your manager" interesting, how do you do that when the manager tells you opposite things day by day and you will get criticised for doing either one. If you are trying to validate that kind of abuse, you could be an abuser as well.
I don't know why we can't just go to work, do our work, be friendly to everyone, and just go home again. This term 'office politics' is one of those terms that everyone assumes everyone knows what it means, but to me seems more confusing than ever the more it is explained to me.
So I will say what I think it means:
1. Find out who is who - who is in the know. Who matters, who doesn't. Spend the first few months listening, watching, learning. Don't jump in and ally yourself with the wrong people. It is hard to disengage with those and form new alliances after dumping old ones that turn out to be useless to you.
2. Find out who is powerful and has the ear of the boss that matters for your career - the person who can develop your career may not be your immediate boss if their own boss hates them. Find out what the boss's boss thinks of your boss and sidle up to them instead - even if it means kicking your supervisor in the shins.
3. Be prepared to prostitute yourself to stay on the good side of 1 and 2, even if you personally can't stand them. Don't rub the wrong people up the wrong way. Learn to smooze instead.
4. Don't stand out too much as the office 'tall poppy' who is much better at their job than your boss is at their own job; and don't stand out as the office super efficient workhorse either - no one ever got promoted by working extra hard or working overtime for no extra pay. You just become the person everyone soon finds out they can dump on with the work they don't want to do whilst they just sit around chatting and smoozing those in the know, and no one wants to lose someone like that. So your performance reviews will alway be 'average' for going beyond and above your job description and it will be poor when you just do what you are paid for, which reflects what the boss wants: to keep you in the same job so their metrics look good and their voluntary turnover is minimised - becuase it makes them look like a good encouraging, motivating boss when they are really a manipulative bully who is just about hanging my a thin thread and whose survival tactics depend of them dividing and ruling everyone else on your team and relying on the tattlers to find out what is going on. Set firm boundaries and stick to them - like starting as you mean to go on by doing your contracted hours, having your lunchbreak and refusing work which you have no time to do. Just like everyone else, in other words.
5. If there is toxic negative politics - tittle tattle, nasty water cooler gossip about others - avoid those people as you will be tarnished by the same brush as them and be seen as unpromotable.
My advice is to try to get a job working from home or go self employed and avoid all this office bull**p in the first place. Chances are you will fall at the first fence if you are an office dolphin swimming amongst sharks who play this game well because they invented it and the rules you need to play by - the narcissists who, like all scum, rise to the top of a polluted pond and steer the culture that way for future employees who think they are keen to be going to work in a postive work environment only to find themselves drowning in a toxic cesspit instead and regret the day they ever left their last job.
You explained this very well.
I really loved your clear examples on what office politics actually is.
But maybe to add something, if you are an ambitious and career oriented person. You honestly can't escape politics in general. Learning the tricks you've just shared can help you excel even in your own business and even remote work.
As long as you're working with people, knowing how to relate with them in a way that benefits you is very crucial.
Yeah, no. From my experience the people who engage in office politics, enjoy chit chat and organize those “fun” events at work…ARE NARCISSISTS. It didn’t happen for them in junior high, and it didn’t happen for them in HS and so they’re desperately trying to make fetch happen in the workplace. I saw a survey asking people whether they want to work from home…11% of people did not. That’s them. It is not anyone’s responsibility to enable a narcissist. I think more awareness on personality disorder is what companies really need to prevent hiring people like this and practical tips on how to repel them.
*Edited for grammar.
💗💗💗💗 great reminder!
Yesss and they usually have no friends !!!!!!
shes part of the problem
I’m fortunate that we have very little “work politics”. My boss’s desk is right with all of the coworkers desks, he could have an office of his own but chose to sit right with everyone else. This has been the case since before I started at the company 9 years ago. We all get along and my boss dose not tolerate gossip or badmouthing of other workers. My boss has said from the beginning, if you have a problem with a coworker, confront them and work it out, if your not able to then I will intervene and one way or another, the issue will be dealt with. He’s a great boss to work for, he doesn’t play favourites (which I know is odd). He always tells us that he is there for us, that essentially, he’s there to manage the department but also, is there to work on our behalf. When fellow coworkers move to other departments (for promotion or other opportunities) they actually feel a bit guilty and disloyal because he’s so great to work for…he always puts them at ease and reminds them that it’s never personal, it’s just business, your doing what is right for you and your family. It’s like working in the twilight zone sometimes, lol!
He sounds like a fantastic leader who has created a great work environment. This is the way it should be!
That's an amazing boss! Kudos to him!
When everyone else had to return to in office and I had to work from home due to my disability, my reputation tanked and everyone started ignoring me. It all turned around when I joined the party planning committee and took control of my narrative while associating myself with fun holiday parties. Everyone is very friendly to me again!
I love how you find a way to raise your visibility in an effective way aligned with how you want to be known!
I think you're screwed either way at least I have. Even if you're not saying anything bad they can always put words in your mouth and people will believe them.
Lies are only believable when you're reputation is weak. When people know better they wouldn't believe them.
@@JenniferBrick I guess we're all entitled to our opinions.
@@JenniferBrickyiu are all talk
It's not even that people will necessarily believe the lies, people can know you are an honorable person and that's what makes you the target, they know you are honest but pass along the gaslighting anyway. This is especially true of a toxic workplace, when the top most manager is a narcissist and promotes only other narcissistic people, then bully packs will form. They actually don't believe the lies, they knowingly lie and say they believe the lies. It's all an attempt to try to keep the target off themselves. It was never possible to create a good reputation for yourself, you were an honorable person in a den of vampires.
You have to understand that some of us provoke things in people just by existing. I've been harassed by men at work just for minding my business and doing my job. They expected me to entertain them. My boss knows what I'm good at and so do the people I help. The women in my area don't seem to keen on my silence either. My work ethic is really good so I don't think I'm in a bad spot but because of how I look, people will treat me a certain way. When humans are actually good (which they aren't) and are free of prejudice, insecurity, and dark tetrad traits, then we will have peace. I won't hold my breathe though.
I also find this video contradictory to a lot of your topics. Coworkers aren't our friends but we need to engage in office politics now?
Welcome to the world of content creation
@@thegreat9481 There are plenty of content creator who keep their message consistent
Yea same. I have a baby making looking body and a nice face and play music, can build things, read, and can play chess….people are easily intimidated instead of showing admiration. That’s reality. Sucks i feel that really I do. When people tell me to keep to myself…how?! Just my presence is alerting. Maybe I smell really good too..who knows. We don’t have control of these things so she is teaching us how to lean in and take control.
Yes it’s contradictory because the person that made that video was in the past. She said in the beginning that she has grown since then. We fail so we can grow or we fail to blame others. It’s your choice.
I agree with you that we can be hated by simply existing, they're keen to keep a bad narrative about you and even if they did change their mind or behavior, they'll probably never admit the vindictive things they did. And I think the safest way to navigate through those situations is taking care of our reputation, by playing clean and control the narrative. Yeah they wont stop hating, but their narrative about you slowly becomes less unreliable in the eyes and ears of others around. People will slowly realize that the recognition you're getting is well deserved, and the hate is unwarranted.
Already got the animosity treatment from day 1, and few months in I was praised by superiors in front of other coworkers, which added further hostility. I helped out with work that others blatantly didn't want to do, so now I'm a "ladder climber/job stealer". I made friends who then specifically left me out. Then I opt to just avoid office politics and make lesser interactions with everyone altogether, but I didn't realize that made those vindictive people control their narrative of me, so now I'm currently building work reputation, relations and character instead of relying on personal friendships, because gossip falls flat when you have a good reputation/credibility with others/superiors. I'm slowly seeing the changes and feeling more in control of my environment although there's an ongoing hostility. I'm entering my second year.
But if EVERYONE in office has adamant hostility towards you, it's probably time to leave.
@@nottoday7801 well said and I am proud of you!!! This is solid advice too!
Sorry, but no.
I will not join my coworkers who are connecting (gossiping) during workhours just to get notice or promoted. Acting like I am interested in someone who is not is way worse then just sitting by myself at the desk. To me is important that my boss is knowing what I am doing and that is it.
My coworkers are not giving me a paycheck that I have to entertain them. Also I do not want to walk on egg shells just to satisfied my coworkers.
I believe you that maybe this is the way of success, but I dont want a that kind of success.
In situation where coworkers are helping each other I will gladly participate but gossip and meaningless chatting with people I dont have anything in common -no way.
My peace do not have a price.
You're majority projecting your issues with workplace dynamics here. Everything you seemed to have heard is the exact opposite of everything I advocate for in this video (and every other video on my channel).
@@JenniferBrick Maybe you right, but the way you presented the topic I understood that way. Beside this video, I think that only one more your video is the one that I could not agree with. But the rest of your videos are great. Maybe is the way you presented... however, I wish you good luck and keep doing the work you do! Greetings
Edit: Also, maybe is the difference because you live in USA. I am from Europe and here are the things rough in the office. Here are head people usually corrupt and people are getting jobs because of relations not necessarily competence. There are many sycophants. Being nice and connecting with others in hope to progress in our workplace is being naive. You can be nice and chatty, but that want bring you bigger salary or progress in work. Your coworker will stand by you only if they have personal interest in that case. In other case, no way. Maybe 20 years ago was different but today everyone is (sadly) just looking his own ass.
Sending you vibes 💜
I'm inclined to agree. I recently told a former co-worker the reason that I admired another former co-worker. All three of us work for the Federal Government. This man is in a pretty significant position now and though he was a little more social than I am, he didn't kiss people's behind and shut down nonsense. He is the only person that I know who made it to the top by being himself. People have to be careful not to give the appearance of begging for clout because they will laugh at you behind your back. I've known of instances where that happened to people and it saddened me. It won't be me.
I have no desire to participate in office gossip. You can't control what others say or think about you. Do your job, keep the boss happy, your co-workers are NOT your friends...
Damn if you do. Damn if you don't.
Only damned if you don't. See my last video 😉
So true! Whatever you do or dont,someone will be pissed at you at somepoint.
That’s what I taught in nursing school NO discussion of politics or church on the job. But I have talk about God but only when my patient started the conversation.
I had a boss that actively tried to keep our department isolated. We weren't allowed to talk to other people in the building. If we did it was questioned, or the other people were reported to their bosses that they were wasting "her employees" time with useless chatter. We were also discouraged from talking to one another within our department. We were only allowed to talk to her. I didn't realize how oppressive and difficult this would make things. I had no allies because I didn't know anyone and no one knew me. The company's impression of me, my productivity, how I did my job was dependent upon her assessment. It was depressing and isolating. Networking is the key to happiness at work. I quit after 6 months. I gave all this feedback to HR during my exit interview and I was told her contributions bolstered the company's bottom line and everyone else was expendable.
Isolation is one of the most toxic tactics or there IMHO.
@@JenniferBrick Thanks so much for these videos. I look forward to them.
I had a boss that did that too. She slowly got rid of the people that she couldn't control.
I usually love these videos and clicked on this ready for insight, however it felt like 10 minutes of ‘just go talk to people’. The fact of the matter is if people are hell bent on ignoring you or treating you poorly they aren’t going to turn around and just have a pleasant conversation with you. Or they’ll be two faced and shit talk you to a whole other team while being nice to your face. Currently dealing with the nay-sayers club at work and thankfully I have a great boss who makes be visible and makes sure I’m included in things. I definitely do the leg work of trying to make these connections myself, but it’s been made clear that people don’t really give a hoot unless they think he’s going to be involved. I think I’m making it not worth their time to continue being jerks, but I would love more concrete strategies on networking in the team so I don’t have to only rely on my managers shadow.
I think the point is that you give yourself a good reputation with enough people that you make yourself unfuckwithable.
omg i suffered this many times, i always feel my talent is not recognized and why other people less gifted always survive and stayed. I finally got to one company before the pandemic where the director supports me and we learnt to play the politics to create an entire team. But now going to a new place at 42 feels hard.
I work directly with the CEO and director as an assistant and they encourage me to avoid politics. The only people I need to impress are them 2 and they are happy with my work.
I do try to be nice to every single worker
Perfect episode ❤thank you for making it. Avoidance is so comfortable but this is such a good reminder to be “out” there while still keeping boundaries and not letting things go too far. Thank u!
I would love if opting out we're an option. The only drama I enjoy is in bad reality shows.
For the most part, you are correct. Sometimes you have to play the game. However, I do the thing of not stepping on people etc. and they still ostracized me. I won't beg for their attention. You can be the nicest, affable, and engaging person but it will not prevent clicks. Sometimes our own behavior does give off the wrong impression.
I agree. I've gone into workplaces where I've been hated before I've even started working. Almost always by women who are cliquey and less attractive than me or perhaps threatened by my intelligence and work ethic. Trying to form alliances with these type of women is impossible. There is so much toxicity out there, and really all you can do in that circumstance is walk away.
Same
@@laurajones7314 Thank you for sharing. We all know that it happens, too. Some people just want a peaceful work environment and to go home.
So, I started to started a new job and tried to in with the office poltics and I still was talked to rudely by my boss three weeks into the job. She later apologized, but it definitely left me feeling uncomfortable. Additionally, I had three co-workers throw me under the bus, and not take accountability. I'm at a loss..😢
I recently started a new job and was blindsided by the active hostility. I have one more day and may not make it through the whole day, it is just evil. So disappointing when I had high hopes, but will be doing a complete career change after this experience, sadly. I honestly can't believe that people can be so dreadful.
So what's wrong? Call them out.
i work as a dishwasher and in food service its not like the office were you don't have these write ups, work probation, departments, etc you go in do your job but if someone starts some shit with you then if you have to take a fuck around and find out approach. someone wants to yell and argue with you then you yell and argue back while standing your ground, if a manager wants to bitch about you about being too slow fire back and put them in a position where they ether have to help you or look like a such a stupid asshole no one will like them for it and start to side with you, if someone ask you to do something that you aren't supposed to do or is out right impossible stand your ground and refuse and insist they show you how its done if its that big of a deal, and if someone wants to get up in your face being really aggressive and such you better be ready to ether beat them into needing life support and catch a charge or quit your job at a chance to avoid a charge. bosses don't give a shit about anything that doesn't impact them negatively personally and they are tons of hot pans, hot oil, and sharp knives laying around and people have no issue in using them against you to get what they want in food service. there is no chance to ignore problems or to try to be friendly with people as you will be seen as weak and a easy target they can and will take advantage of . there is 0 room for positivity when someone wants to test there luck with you at work in food service. so i will say the advice in this video can be helpful for certain work environments but not all
I am learning from your videos a lot. Office politics was never 'worth my attention' and, lo and behold, it was because of that insecure lower-level manageress ruined my reputation and off I went.
I'm sorry you are going through it.
This is one of your best videos! I am so happy to watch you glow up! Congratulations and you look great!
Great video, Jennifer! Subscribed!
Thanks as always Jennifer for sharing your experiences & the excellent advice. Love the advice to build your own reputation ..the what , who & when. Good stuff !
Always appreciate your energy here!
I hated office politics. But recently, I did the office politics unwittingly. I worked hard, I was a superstar, and was genuinely kind, and my coworkers helped me a lot. Then one of them said to me, "We all know that our boss loves you." My reputation at work is fab, those who hate me bec they're jealous can't badmouth me, bec our boss loves me. 😊
Excellent stuff thanks for sharing insights
Can you share the books on navigating office politics that you reccommend? I am in a new department in a large institution and need to learn how to play the politics game to advance! Where do I start? Thanks, and I will start with some of your past videos on the topic :)
Can you be more specific as to what you mean by not ignoring office politics? What does that mean? Taking on more work? Stopping by your boss's office for idle chit chat? What exactly is it? The only concrete thing that was mentioned here was establishing boundaries, but to me, that is not exactly engaging in office politics.
✅ What you will engage with
✅ Who you will engage with
✅ When you will and will not respond
I like that. It's simple and easy. It's not necessary to engage with everything.
I need to watch this again a couple of more times. It sounds like decent advice, ideal situations. However, just like my neighborhoods rob people way more often in St Louis Missouri, I can't make sense what people here think is an open door. When I was a teen and in my early twenties I did get comments that people thought I was mute or deaf & mute. One alcoholic manager at a popular named department store was angry a new quiet manager gave me a merit raise and position I wanted because he claimed I did not talk enough.The problem I see with trying to do better was most of the talk was criminal, the type of emotional abusive sexual subjects, recreational drug related, and down right cruel. Once I started opening my mouth no matter how understanding I was I am either not n-word enough or the n-word trying to trick non black people. And I see this from people that come to St Louis from far away and in cities I briefly been in like Denver, Detroit, Phoenix, and St Charles Missouri. So, it does matter what you look like or come from, things you can't change.
Unf***withable 😂😂😂❤❤ am in love
What type of help is this supposed to be? You lost me with “you have to learn to play the game”. How about we elevate ourselves beyond that shit, to where we don’t need these tactics.
She's absolutely right. I was ostracized and viciously bulled over 20 years ago partly because a lot of toxic people who were sabotaging me thought I that I had no one in my corner so I was an easy target. While you don't involve yourself in office politics, you must have your ears to the ground. Only divulge the best info about yourself and listen for the gossip and be aware of who's in and who's out. As it turned out I had a VP in my corner whom I had worked on procedures with and she vouched for everything I did even though I never consulted her. She was a neutral & ethical person whom I should've reached out to when the mess (not mine) got started just to be aware of what was going on. At least, I would've had more confidence.
What if you are being bully harassed and stalked
I don't work in business related things, but sometimes I find myself disliking someone's personality and what they believe in.
For me my pet peeve is half assed work, some people would hold it off to the last minute and hand it over to me so they can go home on time! While I have to stay back to finish their stuff. It gave me a lot of resentment.
Outside of work I'd have to pretend I like them and befriend them, it all felt like a farce.
There were other people who did not know their boundaries etc and it ticked me off.
But somehow the people who had better relations with this people "succeeded".
When things went down, they stood up for them and advocated for them.
I just wanna be around at work without getting stood up or taken advantage of lol any tips
Everything is business related
I am going to share this with a sibling of mine who is having workplace drama
I hope it helps them!
This is exactly the message I needed to hear and I wished I learned it earlier in life. (I’m an introvert and so are my parents. )
Thank you for this 🙏
I have people in the office which only say Morning and Goodbye 😂😂😂 Gosh they dont get it that the work is about, sorry work is not only work is part of our life, just say something! It makes day more interesting 😮
Hello Jennifer Thanks for the video, I need an advice from you, I am having an offer from MNC tech. My current organisation is a small (1000 people) emerging Cloud Tech company. They are giving me a counter offer and I have been working here for the past 1 year and 3 months. The work environment is good and have a supportive boss.
India's MNC tech - will have more challenge, work life balance will not be good
Should I consider only brand value and move? or should I stay?
Hi Jennifer Will your book become available as ebook on amazone? I want to buy your book but dont like physical books 😂 thank you
I've made the request, but the format is workbook so the publisher isn't prioritizing it. I'm bummed because I'm team Kindle like you.
@@JenniferBrick Thanks
I have 3 people hr /bullie hr recpt friend. They are trying to turn office against me help
Can't see we just go to work without the extras? We are all adults. Going to work feels like im back in middle school or high school. It shouldnt have to be rocket science.
I played this video twice, however I was really hoping to hear specifics of what to do to increase visibility, or be good at office politics to avoid the negative politics.
Tons of videos on my channel to go through, and my workshop is a great option if you need info + guidance!
In one video you said your coworkers are not your friends. And then in this video you are saying we need to find allies at work. I mean you really need to sort your logic straight. If there is no friend, there is no ally.
The dictionary is a great place to learn the difference.
well, in this context, I don't think there is that much difference. I mean your fake workplace friend can throw you under the bus, just like your fake workplace ally@@JenniferBrick
You actually don’t need allies! Let the Truth be your Allie
@@JenniferBrickThis is a really weak and disappointing response and it's clear that quite a few people aren't feeling this video because it does seem to contradict what you said in the past. Their criticism was constructive not destructive. And your response was pretty childish.
@@feliznavidad6958what she means is that you have to engage with people who you have no interest in being friends with in order to form alliances for your mutual benefit.
The workplace is filled with unhealthy, immature individuals, and it's the only way to get ahead when working with them. They force out healthy people, so you need to adopt some of their more benign behaviors in order to survive the workplace. That's what she's trying to say without saying it plainly. I called her out on it too.
This is a tremendous video but the title is misleading.
I may be reading the comments wrong, but it seems most responses to this video seem like "just go to work and be quiet".
Which is fascinating because it could mean
These manufactured office workers are denying they are manufactured in school and don't want anyone challenging the idea of go to school and get an office job.
Or it could be the people like I was once. Those who worked the office job for funding to apply to their real entrepreneurial passion and want to get out.
Knowing how to play office politics is literally a skill they don't teach in school because if they did most people wouldn't stay in school.
what if manager started office politics and later blamed you
I have an employer who seems to have a couple of snitches doing her work for her. She never visits our team, so she deploys people who aren't part of our team to report back to her. Talk about a hostile workplace.
I had a manager like that in fast food. But I got the last laugh once I found out she's been capped at $17/hr since 2017. Here I am about to start an entry-level corporate job at $20/hr.
I'm sure the reason you didn't get robbed is that they surely thought you were home and not that you left your door open.
Probably a good amount assumed that because no one is dumb enough in my neighborhood to leave their door wide open when they're out. Just me.
@@JenniferBrickThis one simple trick will stop your house getting broken into!
Is this the same Jennifer Brick who said don’t have friends at work?
What astounds me is that so many people parse 'not everyone is your friend' as 'everyone your enemy'. I've consistently advocated for people to learn how to develop positive and productive relationships at work, repeated constantly that is required for success (success is not solitary is literally my slogan), and appropriate boundaries.
I've been logically consistent in everything I have said over hundreds of videos. What varies is the trauma projection of the viewer.
Nah. This isn’t it.
Take a shot every time she says "Office politics"
Thank you! :)))
Anytime 🥰
@@JenniferBrick 💕
People on a spectrum (high functioning autism or high functioning bipolar) can't advertise their disability because they will be discriminated against. They also cannot engage in office politics because it is internally destructive to their psychi and my result in self harm or suicide.
Stop advertising that everyone is playing the game
Salesforce, lmao.
Lol most theives probably didn't go inside your house and try to steal because they did assume someone was home, just like the non thieves assume that someone is home
Dial down your IQ by 20 points, don't be too efficient, don't be too productive, don't have an opinion, don't question stupid ideas and just let them play out to their foreseeable conclusions.

This is terrible advice
1:40 No one knows who u are
2:45 *Find ideal influential co-workers
3:45 Stop lying to yourself
This video is soooo confusing. In other videos you say not to be friends with co workers.
In this video, you’re saying to talk to them, but by your description, it’s clear you mean more than “hello” and “goodbye.”
I typically love your videos, but this one fell short.
I'm hundreds of videos have I ever said to not talk to your coworkers. In fact one of my most days phrases is success is not solitary. I've made videos about how to network and build relationships at work. Establishing a strong reputation and network of advocates has always been at the core of what I teach in my videos and programs. You don't have to be friends and over share with people you work with in order to build positive and productive professional relationships. I don't know why anyone would think treating their coworkers as enemies would make them anything other than their enemies.

What a lot of BS a whole video to try convince people to 'engage' and to 'play the game'. What a waste of time. No is a whole sentence.
