Managing Up  (back)
 
Description:
Description:
“Managing up” is the art of interacting with your supervisor or project sponsor to contribute to their success. This involves skills such as presenting both problems and proposed solutions, understanding their work style and expectations and tailoring your interactions with them accordingly, and knowing how to work around their weaknesses and still succeed. Looking at real-life case studies, this session will review common challenges in dealing with project leaders, owners, and sponsors, and discuss some strategies that could help you to navigate these challenges.

Presented by Jenny Faust, associate vice provost of strategic initiatives and director, Office of Strategic Consulting; and Dave Pagenkopf, deputy chief information officer, Information Technology
