“The moral is this: do not underestimate the power of playing the social game. It’s not about tricking or manipulating people; it’s about creating relationships to get things done.

When you’ve got richer relationships with your coworkers, they’ll be more willing to go the extra mile when you need them.” RelationshipSoftware Engineering Book:Software Engineering at Google: Lessons Learned from Programming Over Time Source: Software Engineering at Google: Lessons Learned from Programming Over Time
