info_outlineAnyone who’s ever worked for a boss who is disorganized, scatterbrained, or simply overworked knows how difficult it can be to figure out exactly what’s expected of them. If you find yourself in such a situation, you generally have two options. You could grit your teeth and try to endure the uncertainty. You could also try your hand at “managing up.”
In this episode, Arthur, Jerri & DJ dissect the technique of managing up. Doing whatever you can to make your boss's job easier -- by essentially managing your manager -- includes a combination of:
- communicating your priority and seeking feedback,
- being able to anticipate your boss's needs,
- and understanding what makes your boss tick.
