The trick is to be the bigger dickhead.

You may be joking, but as long as you’re actually good at what you do, being a dickhead can be a winning strategy.

I’ve never been able to do it myself, but know many who have.

In a room full of dickheads, it's often the loudest dickhead that gets their way. Often it's the CEO.

In my experience, people that aren't easy to work with that aren't already in charge don't stick around very long.
