Whether we like it or not, our bosses have enormous influence over our ability to succeed, thrive, and advance in our organizations, our careers, and our own leadership journey. Establishing strong, productive working relationships with those above us is the single most effective way to accelerate success. Whether you are reporting to a supervisor, middle manager, vice president, top executive, or a board of directors, managing up is a skill we all need.

This lively and interactive webcast provides proven strategies and techniques to increase cooperation and collaboration between those who have different power levels, perspectives, and personalities. Learning to effectively manage up is good for you, your boss, and your organization.

  • Understand and manage personality differences that impact manager–staff relationships.
  • Recognize different leadership styles and explore adaptive strategies for communicating and collaborating with each style.
  • Understand your own and your supervisors’ “hot buttons.”
  • Increase organizational trust among managers and peers.
