As managers, we’re trained to look downward (at our team) and outward (at the organization), but if you’re not also managing up, you’re missing a huge part of the job.

In this episode of The New Manager Playbook, I unpack:

• Why your team’s burnout isn’t enough to justify more resources (and what is)
• The exact shift that helped one manager secure 3 additional headcount
• What to say when your own boss starts micromanaging your delegation
• How managing up actually protects your team, not just your reputation

Whether you're a corporate manager or a founder dealing with investors, managing up is the skill that unlocks everything else. Tune in for the frameworks, language, and mindset shifts that help you stop hitting walls—and start leading strategically.
