      "Reputation capital" I think this is probably a useful mental model to have and a necessary survival skill for BigCorp office environments. It seems like a pretty wretched adaptation to an overtly politicized workplace though.pic.twitter.com/75Tg6uKl8c

      I don't know the context, but this doesn't seem to be a "politicized workplace" thing at all. I see this all the time and it seems to be a sort of basic, necessary way for an organization to function.

      When I was a new hire if I said "you need to switch all of your stuff to X platform" the CEO would have been really skeptical. If I said that now he would take it a lot more seriously.

      that's completely reasonable but I'm very surprised that you're not recognizing that as a political interaction. it is. there's always some politics, the thing about this one is it's a mental model that internalizes keeping score all the time.

          I interpreted "political" as referring to the "public politics" sense. In the "well they're human organizations sense" I don't think you can have an apolitical one, I'm not sure it even makes sense to say an organization doesn't have internal politics.

          yes, all orgs have internal politics. not all orgs are so politicized that newly hired employees are inspired to write blog posts about how important it is to play the political game well.

          I dunno, it seems really basic advice that I would give a lot of people fresh out of college: wait until you've been there at least a few months and have some wins before you make big proposals.

          I don't disagree with any of that. I'm more concerned at what happens when this model model is taken to its logical conclusion.
