Fast Company, October 1999 by Polly LaBarre
The New Face of Office Politics
Sure, the new world of business values what you know over whom you know. But, argues influential teacher and consultant John Eldred, you still have to navigate the political realities of your organization.

Fast Company, February 1998 by Anna Muoio
Women and Men, Work and Power
More than ever - and in more companies than ever - men and women are working together, swapping ideas, sharing power. It is no longer newsworthy when an accomplished woman is promoted to lead a business unit or to run a company full of hard-charging men. In fact, more people in the United States now work for women-owned businesses than for the 500 biggest public companies. So why is there still so much tension between men and women at work? Do men and women really lead in different ways? Do they view and use power differently? Must high-achieving women make different sacrifices than men? Fast Company asked 13 prominent women - leaders from a variety of companies, industries, and backgrounds - for their insights on these and other provocative questions.
