- [0:00:00] Episode Summary | Intro
- Jeremy tries out new greetings…
-
- And also recommends everyone watch Guga Foods.
- [0:02:16] Managing Up & Why it Works
- Challenging...and comes with many landmines.
-
- Do it right and your life is easier.
- Do it poorly and it could make your work and culture really suffer.
- You can’t control whether someone is a good or bad manager, but you can put your best foot forward.
-
- You have very real restrictions in how you can deal with a manager, and how you interact with them.
- Managers aren’t perfect, and are oftentimes someone who was in a similar role to you, but was good enough at their job to be moved up (sometimes against their will or desired growth path).
-
- This however does not mean that they’ll inherently be a good manager.
- Rarely is a manager ever actually ‘out to get you’, but poor communication and misunderstandings can make it feel like the opposite.
-
- Over communicate.
-
- Don’t assume you’re on the same page and that you have the same goals or high level view of the work and tasks at hand.
- [0:09:55] Healthy Ways to Communicate
- Force Clarity
- Ask Questions
-
- Also ask good questions. ;)
- Understand How You’ll be Measured
-
- How will you know you’ve done a good job?
- How do you know when you’re excelling or falling behind expectations?
-
- Try to avoid unwritten/undiscussed expectations from both parties.
- Share what success looks like to you.
-
- Make efforts to humanize yourself and your manager by finding that common ground.
- Don’t be afraid to negotiate priorities when you’ve developed a good rapport with your manager.
- Recurring check-ins are great refreshers and reminders of what’s on your plate.
-
- Which helps measuring workload.
- [0:19:57] Be to Solution...with caveats.
- Figure out ways to remove stress and not be the source of stress for your manager.
- If you bring an issue to your manager, attempt to bring a solution, or a series of solutions.
-
- When you come with a solution you give your manager options, which provides the potential for them to lead well.
-
- You also shape how you’re known. You can be known as the person for solutions, or for problems.
-
- You have to decide which you want to be known for. (This all assuming you don’t work for, or belong to, a toxic culture.)
- Some situations can be fixed.
-
- But you might be able to course correct and salvage what’s there.
- If you can’t manage up, it might be time to think about transitioning out.
- [0:26:15] Parting Words
- Just like peer relationships, managing up is never done.
-
- It’s an ongoing process, and it’s an uneven relationship with a “balance of power” to keep in mind to make sure you’re handling that relationship in a productive manner.
