Summary:

You can be an excellent manager, a sharp technical leader, or a trusted team member and still find yourself invisible to the people making decisions above you. You've heard you should "manage up," but it feels like shameless self-promotion or playing politics. In this Tech Leadership Tuesday, Lara Hogan and Lena Reinhard will help you see why that view is getting in your way. Managing up is about making sure the work you and your team are doing is understood, valued, and resourced by the leaders who control what happens next. It's how you build credibility with senior leadership, navigate difficult dynamics with your own manager, and advocate effectively for your team. Whether you're a first-time engineering manager finding your footing with a skip-level or a staff engineer learning to influence decisions you don't own, this session will give you concrete approaches grounded in what actually works. What you'll learn and how to apply it: Communicate your team's work in terms that resonate with senior leadership Build trust with your manager and skip-level before you need something from them Surface disagreement or push back on a decision without damaging the relationship Learn what to do when your manager is conflict-averse, unavailable, or simply not advocating for you Make a case for your team's needs in a compelling way This live event is for you because... You're an engineering manager, tech lead, or staff+ engineer who needs more traction with leadership than you're currently getting. You're preparing to move into a leadership role and want to understand how influence actually works in organizations before you're in the middle of it. You know it's important to manage up but you don't know how and want some first-principles guidance. Recommended follow-up: Read Managing Up (book) Take Leadership Accelerator: Managing Up and Down (on-demand course) Please note that slides or supplemental materials are not available for download from this recording.
