How do you get what you need from the people in charge?

It’s not just people managers who need to be good at influencing conversations; anyone who interacts with a supervisor or even a more dominant personality benefits from learning how to manage up. That’s what I’m covering today with Melody Wilding, the author of a new book, “Managing Up: How to Get What You Need From the People in Charge.”

The book combines Melody’s work in emotion research and therapy with her professional development experience to teach everyone—from the new hire to the department director—how to communicate with confidence and comprehensive understanding, regardless of how different their and their boss’s communication styles might be. Improving this skill set has huge positive effects on not just how we rise at work but also how much we enjoy our time there.

Hear Melody’s insights to expertly manage your workplace conversations, including:

Why you need to get into your boss’s head;
How to set boundaries that ensure your time and expertise are respected;
How to plant the seed for your next promotion;
Where assertive communication and advocacy at work overlap.
