The Ultimate Guide to Managing Up

Do you find yourself navigating unclear expectations from your boss or feeling uncertain about how to better influence decisions at higher levels?

Whether you're a team leader, manager, or even a CEO, there's always someone above you with access to more information, resources, or influence. Building strong relationships with those individuals can make all the difference in your career success—and we have the guide to help you do just that

Here’s what this guide will help you do:

  • Build a foundation for managing up with confidence using varied frameworks,  some of which I’ve created and others are tried and tested coaching tools that I use with clients.

  • Clarify explicit and implicit expectations with your boss through better communication.

  • Understand what you can truly influence and where you need to adapt.

  • Master the art of active listening to go beyond words and read between the lines.

  • Confirm alignment through strategic playback techniques, ensuring you're always on the same page.

  • Ask empowered, open-ended questions to foster more effective problem-solving and collaboration.
