In order to achieve a successful outcome, you must be able to communicate in the appropriate way and have the confidence to influence for the right outcome.

What’s the quickest way to make your working life easier? Make your manager’s working life easier? If you are able to effectively manage upward, it will benefit not only your manager but will also have a huge impact on your own job satisfaction and career prospects.
Traditional thinking has focused on the manager’s role in managing their team members, but more recently there has been a growing focus on managing upward – developing a healthy and positive relationship with your manager so that you both achieve your goals, and the organisation’s goals.
Managing upward is not about the necessity to do so because your manager is incompetent (or a micromanager, or indecisive, or giving you vague feedback….), it is about using the traits of a good manager to bring out the best in you. If you are able to manage upward successfully, you will see the ultimate win-win outcome for you and your manager.
Whether you have had the same manager for a long-time or you are entering a new relationship, on this course you will plan some specific techniques and strategies you can use to increase your personal influence, build respect and communicate more assertively. You will leave with an action plan that will help you to get people on board who are more senior than you, or who you have no direct authority over.

What defines a leader? Is it a title, a position in the hierarchy, or something deeper? True leadership is about making a positive impact, driving change, and fostering an environment where everyone can thrive. If we accept that definition, it quickly becomes clear that anyone, at any level, can be a leader. This course delves into the essence of leadership, distinguishing it from conventional management. It will equip participants with the understanding and skills to lead by influence rather than position. In this course, you will explore the foundational principles of leadership by cultivating a leader’s mindset and aligning your actions with your core beliefs and values. You will learn to appreciate the power of building trust-based relationships that enable you to expand your influence, establish loyal allies, and mobilize support for your ideas. Through engaging with this course, you will redefine your perception of leadership and acquire practical tools for inspiring and influencing others, regardless of your position.
