not just dive into status updates of, oh, here's where this project is. Here's where this is.

This is what's coming up.

Utilize that time to show your manager.

Here's the outcome, the result.

Here's also visibility into how I thought about solving a problem,

the considerations that I made or the people I talked to.

And all of that gives them more insight into you operating at a more

strategic, perhaps even higher level. And it also gives them information that they need to run up

their own chain of command. That's Melody Wilding. She's an award-winning executive coach with a background as a therapist and emotions researcher.

She's also the author of Managing Up, how to get what you need from the people in charge.
