According to wikipedia:  ” Managing up and managing down is studied as part of management studies, and details how a middle manager should effectively deal with his or her manager and with his or her subordinates. Additionally, managing up on its own may be a useful skill for a subordinate who in turn does not manage anyone. It is generally considered to be distinct from “sucking up” or “kissing up” to the manager and “kicking down” to subordinates as it involves benign and straightforward influencing rather than underhand manipulation.

In good leadership practice “Managing Up” is necessary to communicate the current state of affairs to stakeholders. Managing up can make your job easier and is extremely important when you are new to a project or when developing a new team.

In this webinar, Carl Pritchard tackles the nerves, the quick pace and the power of talking UP the management chain.
