Every workplace suffers from office politics. The remedy is to lead a team of your own creation. To lead others who do not necessarily report to you. In other words, to lead without authority.
Keith Ferrazzi
Introduction
For decades, workplaces have been hierarchical structures with a central authority head. Under the authoritative leader are sub-leaders who manage particular teams.
Structuring a company hierarchically looks effective on paper, but in practice, it can lead to office politics, power struggles, ineffective teams, and the misuse of resources.
How can modern-day workplaces move past the problems of traditional employee structure and still achieve their goals?
In Leadership Without Authority, bestselling author Keith Ferrazzi introduces the idea of interdependent networks that cross through the boundaries of teams, departments, and divisions.
With an emphasis on collaboration and mutual accountability, workplaces can get more done while maintaining harmony, without the need for authority.
