There’s a very important person that likely everyone will encounter at some point in their life. It’s someone who plays a critical role in any job you take and can make or break your career – your manager. 

Chris Hagood, the Managing Principal at AstutEdge, has two decades of experience in talent management, organizational culture, and employee engagement. So when it comes to maximizing your relationship with your manager, Chris is the guy to call.  

Chris joins host Ashley Artrip to chat about the importance of understanding what you like and don’t like in a working environment, how that translates to manager styles, green and red flags to watch out for with managers, and how to still thrive in your career even under challenging circumstances. 

Career Advice You Never Got is produced by University FM.

1. Linear is a lie! Forge your own path and know that it’s okay to industry hop. 
2. You have to meet your manager halfway. Figure out what your career aspirations are and communicate that to your manager. Good managers will listen and keep an eye out for opportunities that will help you grow towards those goals. 
3. If you’re in a situation with a bad manager who is not helping you grow, sometimes you have to manage up or press the escape button.

This podcast is about one of the most important decisions you'll make in your life, and how you're probably doing it wrong. It’s not where you'll buy a house, who you'll marry, or if you'll have kids. It’s something bigger that impacts all of those important life choices –  your career. 

The way we make career choices is backwards. We follow outdated rules and listen to half baked advice from people who don't really know us. And as a result, we make career choices influenced by misinformation and insufficient knowledge of what's actually out there. 

This is Career Advice You Never Got.

Your host, Ashley Artrip, is a certified career coach and author of the book Career Design. She’s helped thousands of career changers make pivots to find more fulfillment and has studied what works and what doesn't. In each episode, hear Ashley chat with industry experts, coaches, and thought leaders. With their expertise, they’ll help you answer questions like: Should I go to grad school? When is it time to move on to a new company? How will my skills transfer to other career paths I might like more? 

Or just simply: I feel lost and stuck, what do I do?
