Managing Your Manager:
Four Ways to Create a Productive Relationship
Just because you may lack the title of "manager," that doesn't mean you don't manage other people at work. You manage co-workers sideways, in the sense that you help them when you can and ask for help when necessary. You also "manage up," managing your own manager's expectations for you, as well as getting him or her to do what you want and need. Managing up and sideways helps you maintain smooth, productive relationships with others. It’s not about "sucking up" or flattery.
Evolving from Manager to Leader: 5 Influencing Strategies to Accelerate Success and Make a Difference
This session explores essential strategies and techniques required to powerfully evolve from manager into leader. Being a manager is one of the most arduous and yet most valuable roles in any organization. The challenge lies in dealing with the expectations of those above and below you while also influencing the success of the people around you. When you master managing while leading, you will discover how to impact any organization from the middle. You will leave this class with the skills
needed to powerfully evolve into a Manager who Lead.
We’ll cover:
Trust
Communication
Feedback
Delegation
Recognition
People don’t hate their bosses. They just don’t trust them. When every interaction we have with our people contributes to or contaminates that trust, we must work to build it. And only with trust can we powerfully communicate, offer feedback, and delegate to empower and develop. As the boss, we create this environment every day; and as Managers who Lead, we do it intentionally.
Session Includes: Seminar, Breakfast, Lunch, Parking, and Supplementary learning resources.
