Many of us are looking for a faster way up the career ladder and we invest considerable energy into honing our leadership skills. But how often do we spend time focusing in the other direction? Managing up is an often over-looked element of career success, yet building a great relationship with your manager makes obvious sense and is clearly in your interests.



ACCJ Women in Business Co-Chair Elizabeth Handover will lead a dynamic, interactive workshop on managing up. Managing up means focusing on working well with your manager to obtain good results for you, him/her and the organization. Meeting his/her needs will give better business results and this win-win partnership is more likely to open up opportunities for you to be given more interesting work and more responsibility.



Join this workshop to discover the secrets for successfully managing upwards and to experience interactive exercises for increasing your skills towards a faster, smoother route to the top.
