Talented individuals who successfully manage people and projects but who do not manage the relationship with their bosses run the risk of damaging their own careers and negatively impacting organizational success.
Managing up is the ability to manage the relationship with your boss.
It is not about political maneuvering, manipulation or promoting your self-interests.
Rather, it’s the process of working with your boss to obtain the best possible results for the two of you and for your organization.
Understanding the dynamics of this relationship and knowing how to manage it is essential to your personal fulfillment and career development.
