Let’s talk about managing up
Jinfo Community
20th April 2023
Description
We often talk about Stakeholder Engagement in terms of working with senior clients and budget holders; but managing your own manager is another vital facet of your work.
Having a healthy, positive relationship with your manager makes work life both productive and rewarding. But it can be difficult. Senior leaders often have limited empathy for your work, their immediate priorities may not reflect your longer term strategy and reporting structures can change frequently.
We used this session to share and explore top tips for information leaders to work successfully with their managers.
We were joined by Jeffrey Voight (Global Head of Facilities Services at Willis Towers Watson). Jeff provided his invaluable perspective as a senior corporate leader, having managed many different operational teams, including Information Services.
