Session: Managing Up Without Losing Yourself
You can be the smartest, hardest-working person in the room but if you’re not effectively managing up, you’ll watch your career and growth stall. Managing up isn’t about politics or being a “yes person.” It’s about strategically aligning your work with what matters to your leadership, communicating with intention, and building the kind of trust that makes you indispensable.Whether you’re an emerging leader or a seasoned professional looking for your next leap, you’ll leave this session with a clear framework for managing up without burning out or losing your sense of self.
Key Takeaways
- Identify what truly matters to your boss and senior leaders and connect your work to those priorities
- Understand the key levers of influence when managing up
- Position yourself as a strategic partner and demonstrate promotion readiness
- Build visibility for your work across the organization, not just with your immediate team
- Do all of this authentically, in a way that reflects your values and strengths
