Observation skills
Goals
Allies
Social skills
Tact

Step 1: Observe how things work（找出办公室最有影响力的那个人）
Observe how your workplace functions. Pay attention to the company’s core values and how they most effectively get put into action. Also find out who is influential and take note of what they respond to.

Step 2: Set clear goals（知道公司的目标，并为之做计划）
Set objectives with your boss that contribute to the company’s goals and develop your value as an employee. Inform your boss when you meet certain benchmarks to create a track record of goal-oriented success.

Step 3: Gain allies（得到其他同事的喜欢）
Get the support of coworkers by reciprocating favors and offering your expertise on projects.

Only accept a manageable workload. In the long run, coworkers will respect you more if they know you have the power to say “no.”

Step 4: Branch out（扩大自己的朋友圈，认识不同部门的人）
Build a network that incorporates several different groups and departments. Aligning yourself too strongly with one could leave you out in the cold if they fall out of favor.

Step 5: Sidestep gossip（避免办公室八卦，小心自己成为被八卦的对象）
Sidestep gossip. The target of gossip one day could be a decision-maker the next. If you find yourself in the middle of a nasty exchange, excuse yourself, or focus the conversation on the people talking, not the person being talked about.

Step 6: Brag tactfully（有技巧地自吹自擂）
Brag. Just make sure to do it tactfully, and always give your coworkers credit for shared accomplishments. Telling people about your accomplishments increases the chances your boss will learn of your successes from someone other than you, which works in your favor when they’re deciding who gets a promotion, and who get the ax.
