It is a real problem, although perhaps presented too passively. I was seeking advice about navigating office politics. The back-biting and maneuvering among people about office selection is brutal. Although I personally don't care about office placement, the organization I work for and the people within it seem to care. Would I shoot myself in the foot career-wise by physically distancing myself from the boss, or give others in the office an unintended message or perception if I chose not to be in "executive row"? The advice about finding other ways to stay in the loop was good.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5558939360732260529.post-13719099270292437222009-06-25T13:58:01.511-04:002009-06-25T13:58:01.511-04:00No, no, I liked it!
