It seems that no matter how "good" of a firm one works for, there are always quiet agendas, biases, grudges, and competitions -- the background in which office politics thrives. A paraphrase of Madison would have ambition pitting itself relentlessly against the ambitions of others: peers, managers, reports, and executives.
We have more than a few seasoned business types here: how do you best deal with, manage, or live with the political landscape? How do you work with individuals who act as if you threaten them when you don't intend to? How do you work well equally with individuals who dislike each other without annoying either party?
Generally, how do you deal? Discuss.
