Tired of unclear priorities, overwhelming workloads, or poor and destructive decisions being made from above? In todays episode we provide guidance on taking back control — even when you’re not in a position of power.

Chris breaks down the real skill that separates influential professionals from the rest: managing up. Learn how to influence decisions, protect yourself politically, and push back on unrealistic expectations without damaging your reputation and minizine backlash. 

What’s in it for you?

  • A strategy to get clarity when everything feels like “priority #1”
  • Proven ways to raise concerns without sounding confrontational
  • Tools to frame your ideas in terms your leaders will actually hear
  • Techniques to support a manager who’s willing to fight for the team
