Every work place has got politics. Backbiting and Jealousy. IT is reality. You cannot avoid. 3 levels of players like devilish bosses, backbiting colleagues and finally annoying subordinates? All these part of power and influence mgmt in your work place. You need to live along with that. You cannot escape. If you do, you are going out of your way or simply sidelined. If you do not get involved, you may find your talent getting ignored and your progress/success is limited and you will be left out. Some of the things you need to follow are
1. Ask questions to your boss about org(basically you are asking how Boss wanted the org?). Now follow the steps.
2. Image of Merit and results. This will help to overcome some extent. Merit is always merit.
3. Occasionally make your voice louder? not always. To show that you have opinion.
4. Pay attention to powerful stake holders..their talk, communication, habits, etc. Emulate them to win
5. Respect everyone in the org. You never know when you need the help.
6. Do not group. Play neutral. things will change with time.
7. Assertive communication. This helps.
