Summary

Managing up isn’t about politics — it’s about clarity.


In this episode of Extra Shot, we unpack why competence alone isn’t enough in complex organizations. If you’ve ever been told you’re “not visible” despite doing strong work, this conversation is for you.


We explore how leaders actually experience your work, why effort doesn’t automatically translate into influence, and how small shifts in communication — bringing options instead of answers, naming risks early, understanding decision modes — can dramatically change how you’re perceived.


Because managing up isn’t about shrinking yourself. It’s about making your thinking legible.


Small adjustments. Big impact.
