Abstract
Organizational politics is largely portrayed negatively. In the pursuit of one's career in organizations one cannot avoid playing by the rules of this game. Its presence in every facet of corporate life demands that we give keen attention to the concept of organizational politics. This paper looks at organizational politics from ethical and unethical perspectives; what is the impact of organizational politics on human relations and performance? How does it generally manifest itself in Ghanaian organizations, both public and private? Human resource management activities like recruitment and selection, training and development as well as career progression are a few of an organization's life that politics as an organizational phenomenon affects. Leadership's role in energizing organizational politics in a positive direction is crucial for harmonizing individual and organizational goals.
