not always mean getting your way. If you win the battle,
you may damage the relationship. Choose your battles
carefully. It may be better to back off on an issue for a
short time and press ahead again at a later time.
In #2 above - Interacting with your boss or management - you
should seek to find out what others want and what is their
agenda, before you push ahead with yours. If you know that
your direction is in conflict with what they are seeking then
you can regroup. You could reframe the objective in terms
