Send us a Message!

In this episode, we explore the concept of Managing Up, which is how to adjust your approach when working with your boss or a difficult boss to improve your professional relationship and help them get the most out of you.

Our prescription for this episode is to be consistent, firm, patient, and a little confident to incorporate some practical skills, like Managing Expectations, using Assertive Communication, and following up in writing to ensure stronger communication habits to improve how you work with your boss.
