Listen Later

Have you ever felt out of control in your career? Subject to the whims of your boss and internal politics?


What if you could take back that power and drastically amplify your professional profile – in the space of a few simple, impactful conversations?


Well, you can, by Managing Up. In this conversation we asked Melody Wilding, author of the brand new ‘Managing Up, How to Get What You Need from the People in Charge’ exactly how we can do this. In this conversation we explore some incredibly practical research-based ways you can shape key conversations with every leader you work with, to create great outcomes for you, your team and that leader – and help you feel a greater sense of agency over your work life. 


Melody Wilding is a professor of human behavior at Hunter College and was recently named one of Insider’s “most innovative career coaches.” Her background as a therapist and emotions researcher informs her unique approach, weaving evidence-based neuroscience and psychology with professional development. She is the author of Trust Yourself, and her latest book ‘Managing Up: How to Get What You Need from the People in Charge’.
