About this listen

Nick introduces listeners to the fundamental skill of reading workplace dynamics like a master strategist. This episode reveals how every office operates on multiple levels of reality—the official organizational chart versus the actual power structure where decisions really get made. Listeners learn to identify real decision-makers, understand informal influence networks, and recognize where true power lives in any workplace. Nick covers power mapping techniques, the difference between authority and influence, meeting hierarchies, information currencies, and the political implications of physical and virtual workspace dynamics. The episode establishes that understanding workplace politics isn't about manipulation—it's about recognizing the human dynamics that naturally emerge in organizational settings.
