Lead Upward with Living as a Leader

In your day-to-day job, do you ever find yourself asking the following

  • How can I be more effective at giving my boss candid, respectful feedback?
  • How can I get more time with my boss?
  • I'd like to share some observations—how can I have that conversation?
  • I need information from busy senior-level leaders. How can I ask for what I need?

 In all of these cases, the real question is: How can I lead upward? Sometimes it’s called “managing up.” What exactly is “leading upward?” Leading upward is influencing your boss (or another person of power) to get a mutually beneficial result.

 It’s not always “the boss” with whom we have trouble leading upward. It could be anyone in the organization whom you perceive as having more authority or power than you do. It could even be people outside the organization—high-ranking customers or vendor contacts, for example.

 Join us as we discuss the problem of power, six strategies to “lead upward,” and a five-step process for a “lead upward” conversation.
