Welcome to the website of
The Academy for political intelligence.
In today’s increasingly complex working environment organisational politics has been called ‘the missing leadership competency’.
Having all the leadership skills is no longer enough to be successful - what is also required is a keen awareness of the political landscape, the skill to maneuver effectively around the political minefield and a set of behaviours that are crucial to getting things done in a way that is good for both you and the organisation
The Academy exists in order to:
- Promote the awareness of how negative organisational politics can damage organisation and individual performance
- Communicate that organisational politics can be a positive force for all concerned
- Design and deliver a range of pragmatic and focussed development solutions that lead to a measurable improvement in performance
- Act as a focal point for all matters political, encouraging and enabling individuals and organisations to address this critical area with positive outcomes
- Provide resources, expertise, help and advice on all matters relating to organisational politics.
This website contains a wide range of information on the subject of organisational politics, how our training programmes might be run in your organisation, the people that we work with, our experiences to date with a range of global companies both public and private and our worldwide capability to deliver.
There is also a forum where you can get advice and guidance on how to manage your own political situations that you are experiencing in the workplace.
Additionally, there is a practitioner area full of the latest updates of our materials and other resources that we continue to develop in and around this subject area. Practitioners are those who have become licensed to use the Academy’s materials in their own businesses. We are proud to support our 62 practitioners who operate in such places as Australia, Africa and all over Europe.
