When people say the words "managing up", they often think of incompetent managers with whom they can’t stand to work. Always micromanaging, giving vague feedback, and forcing you to work overtime.
But managing up isn't about trying to ‘fix’ a bad manager.
Managing up is about building a better relationship with managers, setting the right expectations, and understanding conflict resolution to bring out the best in you as an employee.
Sounds good, but how do you start? And will your boss embrace these changes?

By the end of this session, you will learn:
- Why companies need managers
- The different operating styles managers have
- Their incentives and what makes them and you successful
