Why would you want to manage up?

<p>This conversation stemmed from a comment on the Quick Hits conversation about How to manage up (<a href='https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Xb2csvxNuo&t=0s'>https://youtu.be/-Xb2csvxNuo</a>). Is managing up really something that needs to be done? Is it insulting?</p> <p>Listen in as Elizabeth Jeffers, Steve Thomson, Tim Hawkes and I discuss when managing upwards might be useful. </p> <p>To learn about the panelists, please visit their LinkedIn profiles:</p> <p>Steve Thomson: <a href='https://www.linkedin.com/in/stevethomsoncoach/'>https://www.linkedin.com/in/stevethomsoncoach/</a></p> <p>Elizabeth Jeffers <a href='https://www.linkedin.com/in/elizabeth-jeffers-a00864b/'>https://www.linkedin.com/in/elizabeth-jeffers-a00864b/</a>  </p> <p>Tim Hawkes: <a href='https://www.linkedin.com/in/timhawkes/'>https://www.linkedin.com/in/timhawkes/</a></p> <p>Dr Robyn Odegaard: <a href='https://www.linkedin.com/in/robynodegaard/'>https://www.linkedin.com/in/robynodegaard/</a></p> <p> </p> <p><a href='https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/quickhits'>#QuickHits</a> are designed to make you think by letting you listen in on an unscripted conversation to get other people's thoughts on various subjects</p>
