When you hear the term "managing up," do you start groaning? Do you think you have to "play politics" to work with your manager? It is all about being the "favorite" employee, you wonder?

Well, time to stop groaning, and instead, it's time to start building a relationship with your manager.

Managing up isn't manipulation, and it isn't brown-nosing. Instead, it's about a relationship: building and nurturing a relationship with your manager.

This course will help you undo some of the wrong and old thinking you may have about working with your manager.

I'll also share strategies that strong leaders I've coached regularly use when working with their managers.

Your relationship with your manager is one of the most important relationships you have. This person delegates work to you, gives you feedback, and can play a role in getting you a promotion (or making it difficult to get one).

Hence, it's key you dedicate time to learning how to build and nurture a relationship with your manager.

This course will help you in your current role and future ones. I'll share information you will use throughout your entire career.

• Learn why "managing up" is the wrong way to think about working with your manager

• Assess the current and ideal states of your relationship with your manager

• Realize how common misconceptions about working with your manager may be holding you back in your success at work

My POV comes from over 20 years of experience coaching founders, CEOs, CFOs, CTOs, and VPs. I've trained over 20K people worldwide, and that number doesn't include all of you, my Udemy students. I know what your manager wants you to do more and less of, and in this course, I'll share that with you.

I'm excited to work with you, and after you finish the course, I'll add additional content quarterly and invite you to free monthly webinars with live coaching.
