Manage Up with Confidence!

💡 “Managing up is not about playing politics. It’s about creating the conditions for your own success.” – ‪@melodywildinglmsw‬

Too often, we resist the idea of managing up because we associate it with office politics, ingratiation, or manipulation.

But in reality, managing up is about strategically navigating relationships with those in power—not for their benefit, but for yours.

Here’s the reality:

👉 If you don’t manage up, your ideas may be overlooked.

👉 If you don’t manage up, opportunities will pass you by.

👉 If you don’t manage up, you may end up frustrated by decisions that could have been influenced.

Managing up is NOT about being a “yes person.” It’s about learning how to communicate with decision-makers in a way that they will actually hear and act on.

It’s about understanding their style, preferences, and priorities—and aligning your approach accordingly.

✅ Got a data-driven boss? Lead with numbers.

✅ Working with someone who values efficiency? Skip the backstory and get to the point.

✅ Managing someone who needs consensus? Show them who is already bought in.

This isn’t about manipulation—it’s about maximizing your impact. Because the truth is, no one succeeds in a vacuum.

How do you approach managing up? Do you see it as a skill or a struggle?

Let’s discuss. 👇
