Rarely is it clearly defined and therefore it can be hard to distinguish from “street smarts”, emotional intelligence, social IQ, political savvy, or navigating corporate dynamics. Of course, I can’t provide THE definition of Org Savvy but today I want to describe an Org Savvy model that I’ve used for the past 25 years.
