Do’s of Managing Up:

1. Understand Your Manager’s Goals: Take the time to comprehend your manager’s objectives, work style, and expectations. What are their priorities? How do they operate? Align your efforts accordingly.
2. Make Their Life Easier: Be proactive in supporting your manager. If you notice gaps in their awareness (e.g., they’re swamped with meetings), provide quick updates on your tasks. Keep them informed to avoid blind spots.
3. Communicate Effectively:
Be a clear communicator. When you foresee problems, address them promptly. Offer solutions rather than waiting for your manager to catch issues. Great communication reflects well on both of you.

Don’ts of Managing Up:

1. Manipulate Situations: Avoid trying to manipulate situations solely for personal benefit. Managing up is about helping your manager and making their work life easier. Self-serving actions go against this principle.
