Hey folks on Grapevine, could use your help.
Managing up: Super poor at this. Never meet the skip boss either. Anyone know whatās the right way to crack managing up and accelerate up the career ladder šŖ without seeming like a blatant careerist or building āgenuineā relationships even though you donāt feel that way. Is there a simpler way to make this happen?
Managing oneself: Thereās a great article by Peter Drucker on Managing Oneself. All fine and dandy in theory but I wonder if thereās a more practical Gen-Z version of this anyone could take a stab at?

On upward management - have always struggled with this too. I've found that I don't like setting up catch ups myself, and when they happen, it's some random BS
I think ultimately my comfort level has set in with - having purely feedback oriented catch ups once a quarter, and between them just trying to do well at work.
Basically not having to make random casual talk in catch ups, but also ensuring you're not caught off guard during performance evaluation.
Thank you!
Is it just some glorified corporate bullshit or does this principle have some real practical value? āManaging your managerā honesty sounds very much like āpotty training your dadā to be very frank.
