title: Managing the politics of the workplace.
abstract: The workplace--usually the hospital--is the laboratory for the new nurse's first year of practice. Lacking experience, the neophyte will need to learn organizational savvy and judgment and gain clinical experience with the help of a preceptor-mentor. Properly managing the first year of professional practice in the workplace will result in career success and satisfaction.
