Managing up has become a big term in tech circles today and the term has grown to encompass a lot of things. Studies have shown that when men are thinking about managing up, they’re thinking of personal interest – and when women think of managing up, they’re thinking about their teams.   

The truth is, successful managing up requires both of these skills – sometimes you need to go to bat for yourself, and you’ll need to go to bat for your team. 

This session will outline why you need to manage up, bust a few common myths around managing up, and show where managing up comes into play in everyday work scenarios.
