The Art of Managing Upwards

June 12, 2024 at 11:00 AM PST/ 2.00 PM EST

 

Middle managers often spend as much time managing those above them as below.

 

Whether it’s managing expectations, negotiating for resources, or advocating for staff on the ground, it can be a constant balancing act that requires compromise, diplomacy, and a thick skin. So how can you as a People Leader support them?

 

In this webinar, our Senior People and Talent Manager Julia Fulton will be speaking to Executive and Manager Coach Laura Lillie Goodridge about the changing landscape of management, and why ‘managing up’ has become more important than ever.
