The director of inclusion at Netflix says office politics can be a catch-22 for women (by michellepking)

is a leading global expert on gender and organizations and is the director of inclusion at Netflix.In it, she describes how senior leaders often get ahead because they know how to "play the game" of office politics.

I was surprised by this, so I voluntarily interviewed 32 senior leaders to better understand why these individuals were so successful. I always got the same answer. These frequently promoted people all have one thing in common: They're masters at getting the support they need for an idea, promotion, pay rise, project, or opportunity. In other words, they know how to "play the game." They have political skill.

Women don't have the same privilege of engaging in office politics that men do. This makes it harder for women to build relationships, alliances, and supportive informal networks. It's no surprise that women often rely more on formal systems and career development processes to advance than office politics. Because of this, experts might conclude that women just don't understand office politics or value it the same way men do.

Not only does office politics feel inauthentic to women, but women find office politics to be irrational, aggressive, competitive, and important for advancing individual goals but not for wider organizational success . In fact, in one study, women's descriptions of barriers to their career advancement actually described office politics, which included things like being excluded or not having access to networks.
