Introduction: Don't Wait for Others to Offer You a Chair
Part 1: GETTING TO THE TABLE
1 When Other People Say You Don't Belong at the Table, Ask Them to Explain Why
2 When People Say There's No Room at the Table, Don't Believe Them
3 Getting a Place at One Table Will Help You Get a Place at Another
4 Understand How a Seat at the Table Is Acquired. Some Seats Are Earned
Some Are Inherited
Some Are Awarded Or Given Away
Some Are Purchased
and Some Need to Be Fought For and Won.
5 Always Plan at Least Two Different Routes to the Table. Three Routes Are Better Still.
6 No One Gets to the Table Without the Assistance Of Others. Be Willing to Accept Help-And to Ask For It.
7 Assemble a Posse Of Advocates Who Will Help You Get to the Table
8 If Your Advocates Can't Or Won't Help You Get to the Table, Look For New Advocates
9 When Necessary, Turn Your Opponents Into Advocates
10 Sometimes the Fastest Route to the Table is Asking the Right Questions
11 Anticipate the Ways In Which People May Try to Keep You Away From the Table. Then Outthink and Outplan Them.
12 Be Wary When You're Invited to Sit a Table That Doesn't Interest You. Be Warier Still When People Pressure Or Encourage You to Sit There.
13 Remember That Your Time and Opportunities For Getting a Place at the Table Are Limited
14 Sometimes the Best Thing to Do Is Build Your Own Table
Part 2: ONCE YOU'RE AT THE TABLE
15 Listen Respectfully to Everyone at the Table. Debate Or Challenge Them If Necessary-But Never Ignore Them.
16 Use Your Place at the Table to Help Others-But Carefully Choose Whom You Help and How You Help Them
17 To Get to the Table, Stay There, and Do the Most Good While You're There, Recruit Both an Advocate and a Protector
18 Invite Others to the Table and Help Them Get There-Even If Some People at the Table Disapprove
19 When New People Join the Table, Welcome Them, Even If They're Not People You Wanted Or Planned to Work With
20 No Matter How Crowded Or Noisy the Table Gets, Don't Try to Force People Out. Instead, Find Ways to Make the Table Bigger
21 If You Have the Opportunity and the Skills, Bring Everyone at the Table Together Into a Team
22 Don't Let Fear Drive You From the Table. Accept the Fear, But Don't Flee.
23 When Fear Threatens to Drive Others From the Table, Help Them to Stay
24 When Others Already at the Table Need Your Help, Offer It-But Don't Force It On Them
25 When Other People Who Belong at the Table Won't Come to It, Insist That They Do
26 When Someone at the Table Tells People That They Don't Belong, Challenge and Educate Them
27 When Someone at the Table Tells You That You Don't Belong, Get Everyone's Attention-and Then Educate Them
28 When You Need to Solve a Problem, Call to the Table People With the Necessary Skills. Don't Just Call People With Good Intentions.
29 Never Forget the People Who Helped You Get to the Table
30 Always Remember That Service Is Part of the Price of Being at the Table
31 Sometimes It's Much Harder to Stay at the Table Than It Is to Get to It
32 Never Take Your Place at the Table For Granted
Part 3: LEAVING THE TABLE
33 Think Twice About Leaving the Table When Someone Needs You at It
34 If You Realize You're at the Wrong Table, Find a New One
35 If Other People Force You Away From the Table, Lick Your Wounds and Find Another Table
36 Sometimes Leaving the Table Can Be a Strategic Step Toward a Place at Another, More Desirable Table
37 If You Choose to Leave the Table, Be Clear and Honest With Yourself About Why. If You Choose to Stay, Be Equally Clear and Honest With Yourself About Your Reasons.
38 When Someone Else Has to Leave the Table, Help Them Leave Graciously and With Dignity
Afterword: Your Place at the Table Awaits
