"It is literally true that you can succeed best and quickest by helping others to succeed." - Napoleon Hill
Ask yourself these questions:
- Do I make life easier for the people around me?
- Would my boss say I am high maintenance?
If you want to be the one who successfully manages up, you MUST learn that managing up is not wrapping
your boss around your little finger. It is not manipulation. (Sure some people behave this way, but this
is never what I want for you.) It is about BEING the respected, reliable and
EXCELLENT resource that you
are and behaving so that others RECOGNIZE your VALUE.
Once upon a time I interviewed a candidate for a job. He actually asked me this question;
“If I worked for you, how could I make your life easier?” Now the first time I heard that I was
completely floored. And I admit I was a little cynical and I thought, “Yes, sure buddy.” I had no response
(shame on me).
Then it happened again with a different candidate. This time I was prepared. I told him,
“Come in, get ramped-up as quickly as possible, ask for direction and then take that direction
and run with it. Build good relationships with your customers and your team and don’t ever
let me get blind-sided.”
You report to a person, a human being. Whether they choose to let you see that side of them or not,
that's a style issue. They have pressures, stresses, fears, and insecurities just like you do. So don’t
think for a minute that just because someone has director or a vice-president in their title that they have
no worries. How are you treating your boss?
Now ask yourself this question:
- Do I know how to make life easier for my boss?
If the answer is NO, you need ‘Managing Up’.
Consider the story of Jasper and Richie (real names withheld of course)
They both work for the same chief information officer or CIO and the perception is
Jasper is on his way up. In fact Jasper’s boss looks forward to giving Jasper more responsibility.
The CIO has this thought about Ritchie, “I think Ritchie is already in over his head and I’m certainly not
going to demote him, but he’s just not a candidate for additional responsibility or for future promotion.”
OUCH!
Well, part of this is about perception. Whether you like it or not, perception becomes
reality.
I bet you know people who are masters at managing perception. The problem is some of those people are
‘perception’ only. Perhaps you call them all fluff and no form or all style and no substance.
‘Managing Up’ is not about the fluff. YOU have the substance behind the style you just need to show it.
You are going to put into action the behaviors that will HAVE OTHERS SAYING:
- What would we ever do without _______?
- How does __________ stay on top of everything?
- How come ___________ knows exactly how to handle our boss?
- ________ is really well regarded by our customers, leaders and team members.
- How does __________ know just what to do to make the boss happy?
See all those fill-in-the-blanks above? That is where you fill in your name, because if you really put
‘Managing Up’ to good use, this will be YOU.
‘Managing Up’ is not just a nicety, it is a necessity.
Remember be mindful and thoughtful. How you act and what you produce on the job impacts your management
and your co-workers too.
Have you ever:
- Wondered what your boss really wants from you?
- Wondered why someone who is less skilled than you are is held in higher regard?
- Wondered why you work hard, yet your boss seems unimpressed?
- Wondered how you can relax and be at ease with your management and them with you?
If you answered yes to any of the above questions, ‘Managing Up’ will give you MORE than just answers,
it will give you answers and actions. The next step is up to you.
“The greatest ability in business is to get along with others and to influence their
actions.” – John Hancock
Forget about manipulation and brown-nosing, ‘Managing Up’ is the primer for getting
along with your management by controlling the only thing you truly can control, YOURSELF!
