From the Publisher:

"You are not in charge," writes Geoffrey Bellman. "whether you are a manager, professional, administrator, or supervisor, your job supports the decisions and goals of other people. You may often feel powerless to get things done and frustrated in your daily battles with the organization... but the truth is that you are not nearly so powerless as you may feel. In this book, I explore the many ways that you can get things done and accomplish your own goals while supporting others' work." Bellman offers practical guidance for everyone who is not in charge but wants to make a difference in the organization. He shows how to:
- empower yourself and others
- lead change from a support position
- build working relationships
- develop positive political skills at work
- establish patterns of success
- take risks wisely
- set priorities
- get results
- and discover greater meaning and fulfillment in your work.
