Podcasts about your boss

Do you know how to effectively communicate with someone in a higher position, such as your boss, a board, or anyone in a position of authority? Kevin welcomes Melody Wilding, who shares strategies and conversation frameworks to help professionals at all levels navigate complex relationships with their leaders. Melody and Kevin discuss the concept of “managing up”; not as sucking-up or people-pleasing, but to take ownership of your success by fostering productive and respectful relationships with those in charge. They also discuss the critical conversations outlined in her book and dive into three in particular: the boundaries conversation, the feedback conversation, and the styles conversation. Melody emphasizes the "triple win" philosophy, which focuses on finding solutions that benefit you, your boss, and the organization. She offers practical advice for leaders on how to facilitate managing up for their team members, such as asking, "What do you need from me?"

Managing up is crucial for your success. It's about knowing your career goals and aligning them with your manager's needs and priorities. Yet it's a skill we're rarely taught and one we rarely see done well.   For Melody Wilding, this gap in how to manage her career became clear when it caused her to lose her job. It's what made her want to write her latest book, Managing Up: How to Get What You Need from the People in Charge. In this conversation we talk about how to get aligned with your manager on what's most important to them in ways that also help you, how to engage in effective networking, and how to promote yourself in the workplace.

SEASON 3 EPISODE 97: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:45) SPECIAL COMMENT: Trump and Musk and Vance are now clearly signaling their intent to ignore the court orders keeping Musk from pillaging the government financial computers and your personal information. It is the informal beginning of their Civil War against the government of the United States of America. We're not at Fort Sumter yet but it's visible. Yet there has been no update on the news that Trump’s minions have already been giving loyalty tests to applicants to the FBI, other law enforcement, national security, that include questions like “Yes or No: Was The 2020 Election Stolen” and “Who is your REAL boss?” No updates from Saturday’s Washington Post story and as nearly as I can tell it didn’t even COME UP during any of the Sunday shows. The question NOW becomes what happens when – and this seems increasingly inevitable – Trump and Musk defy the court orders and again access the treasury. First of all, who is there to STOP them? What do the courts who have ruled against them, and the others who are likely to rule against them THIS week, and the litigants like the 19 Attorneys General, do next? Does this go directly to the Supreme Court where the corrupt theologians can say “ah but we have precedent in this area. If you can’t prosecute an EX-President for crimes, if HE’S immune, how can you prosecute anybody for crimes ordered by a SITTING president?” in which case it’s official, it’s a dictatorship. Or TRUMP looks at the judges and say THEIR behavior is actually an attack on the country and HE invokes the Insurrection Act and rounds up the judges and the Democrats and… me. The other option is intermediate steps by the judges who really really don’t like being ignored and who while they might hesitate to pursue Trump, would probably line up to pursue Musk and the others. They could quickly order Contempt of Court orders against Musk and his employees and there are scenarios in which they move quickly enough to put them in holding cells for defying legitimate orders. Or there could be a confrontation between Court Officers and police loyal to them, and Musk’s people and police loyal to THEM. Or there could be a VIOLENT confrontation between those groups. Or this could end up the Juan Merchan route in which the courts act so slowly, so stupidly, so violating their purpose and indeed their history of blocking corruption, especially corrupt businessmen maneuvering a hostile takeover of the government, do… nothing. There IS one wild card I see here. Trump says he will have Musk look next at the Education Department and then the Army. If Musk tries to do to the Pentagon what he's done to the Treasury and goes in there, they may never find him. The rest of this episode repeats Sunday's emergency edition about Trump is having them ask candidates for jobs in his administration’s FBI field stations away from D-C what is probably the most chilling question ever asked by any government of the United States: “Who is your real boss?” This is, if you do not know, in The Washington Post’s brief, damning, almost (despite everything) unbelievable, nightmarish report posted late Saturday night. The Post is quoting applicants for the FBI and other top National Security positions – and they hint some of these are people who were IN these organizations, dismissed, and are being the opportunity to return to work. At least two FBI applicants were asked at least two questions out of George Orwell or the Soviet Union or Nazi Germany. One, you heard: Who is your real boss? If you need more, don’t worry, there IS more. Who were “the real patriots on January 6th?” We know through the Post’s reporting, of at least two other questions, asked of those being interviewed for some kind of leadership positions WITHIN the Trump national security apparatus IN Washington. They are told to answer yes or no to each. Question one: was January 6th an “inside job?” Question two: Was the 2020 presidential election stolen? At least these two applicants told their interviewers ‘no.’ Neither was hired. Just the asking of these questions alone – never mind the answers, let alone the implications that it is anything BUT political science fiction to conclude that some people have already answered YES and are moving into roles at the FBI and other law enforcement and national security organizations – just ASKING these questions, signals the end of democracy because if today you can ask candidates for FEDERAL law enforcement positions to swear personal loyalty to their “real boss” and if today you can ask candidates for those same positions to insist lies about January 6th and the 2020 election are the truth, and that the truths are lies… then tomorrow you can make it ILLEGAL to answer that the 2020 election wasn’t stolen, and then next week you can make it illegal to publish or broadcast that the 2020 election wasn’t stolen, and then the week after that you can put anybody who does in prison. We are already here. To be in law enforcement, you have to prove in advance you are willing to lie for Trump. I hope every bothsidesist reporter and whatboutist executive and bipartisan Democrat has a secret plan they've been saving for the last possible moment. Because we are at the last possible moment. PLUS: Musk is now hinting at ignoring the court ruling restraining him from further access to government computers and payroll systems. If he and Trump don't obey the rulings force of some kind will have to be applied and this entire issue of democracy versus dictatorship may come to a head faster than ever anticipated B-Block (41:42) MORE SPECIAL COMMENTS: We are at the point where I hope I've never been righter and the continuation of democracy actually does depend more on the stupidity of those trying to destroy it than it does on the efforts of those of us trying to save it. But there are measures we take - or at least our wobbling, dubious opposition party can take: deny support for anything in the House and put a personal hold on anything Trump wants from the Senate. And we need a Wartime Consigliere or if you're from this century, The War Doctor. C-Block (56:45) WRAPPING IT UP: I don't know when the next episode will be. I do know we need our own answer from Hakeem Jeffries and every other Democrat to the question of the hour: Who's Your Boss? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Don't let yourself continue to feel stuck or typecast in your role. The best way to shift toward your next opportunity is by making yourself visible and showing your value to leadership. Often, employees assume their hard work will automatically be recognized and rewarded. The reality is that it's not always the case. It is crucial to be proactive about your aspirations. Have an open conversation with your leader about your career goals. Let them know where you envision yourself within the organization and beyond. That will increase the likelihood of creating that next big break for yourself. In the meantime it is necessary to work on developing a parallel plan. If you've been locked in the same role for a long time, then start to explore and confirm opportunities elsewhere. Seeing other roles will give you reassurance that can provide the courage needed to discuss career progression. It may even prompt a change if progress within the current organization isn't feasible. Meanwhile, managers need to be more observant and proactive with their team members' career progression. Have regular career discussions and encourage an open-dialogue. That can prevent the loss of valuable team members who feel unnoticed or unappreciated. It's not only about what you can do for your team, but also about recognizing what your team can do for the organization with the right opportunities. Remember, it's not just about showing up. It's about standing out! Don't wait to be noticed. Take the initiative, demonstrate your value, and ask for the opportunities you want. Speaking of opportunities, don't miss the opportunity to be part of 'Creating Disney Magic' history.

IMHO, one of the best things you can do to move leaps and bounds closer to a lower-stress life with more freedom is to consistently get pay increases… and invest all of them. If you're already living comfortably and can work out a process for getting regular pay increases and investing all of them, you'll be amazed at what becomes possible and the doors that open up for you financially. But first, there's the matter of securing the raise itself, in a way that's sustainable and consistent. And one of the most effective ways to do that is through quarterly reviews with your manager.

"Who's Your Boss" with Tracy Berkeley y . Tracy is the first female CEO of the Bermuda Tourism Authority.

Hello ladies, and Welcome to Episode 18 of The Career Woman's Secret Playbook Podcast! I'm your host, Dr. Dawn, CEO/Founder of Dr. Dawn ShopTalk and you might remember that last week's episode was all about what to do when your office is driving you nuts – WELL, what IF the person who is driving you nuts is YOUR BOSS?  THAT presents it's OWN challenges, doesn't it, and THAT is what we are going to talk about today! OK folks, as we get started, let's FIRST look at this statistic:  Did you know that a difficult relationship with a co-worker of boss is the number 1 reason that people leave their jobs? Did you know that a difficult boss is a situation that most professionals have to deal with AT LEAST ONCE during their careers?  Well, with these 2 easy but powerful strategies, I am going to show you not only HOW to work with someone who is difficult BUT, I'm going to show you that there are actual benefits to doing so! While your first instinct may be to resign from your position, dealing with a difficult supervisor is often the best and most productive option. Why?  Because it forces you to address the situation, and when you do, it will lead us to the 1st strategy:#1  - The Benefits of Confronting the Problem:Reduced work-related stress/chance of illnessIncreased work satisfaction/relationshipsIncreased job productivity/potential for career advancementWhen you think of these kinds of stressors and challenges as opportunities instead, you will see all the benefits to you AND your skill set in working it out. #2 - Something we are calling ESP: You know when we think of ESP, we typically think of Extra-Sensory-Perception, or that 6th sense, right?  And although I am going to be using a SLIGHTLY different definition for OUR purposes, this idea of being able to see what other's can't, is still VERY relevant.  E - Empathize with what your boss is facingS - Strategize what your boss needsP  - Practice your leadership skillsTune in to today's episode to find out more!NEW HERE?  Do these 2 things first.1.    GET YOUR FREE copy of the What to Do When your Office is Driving You Nuts Cheat Sheet.  This fun guide is chopped full of tips/tricks on how to have a fantastic workday no matter what!

Who's Your Boss with Bermuda's 1st Female Senior Magistrate Maxanne J. Anderson.

Guess who's back?! It's the intern baby! Side of Guac nation, let's ride! This week the bosses went on so many tangents I think they might have broken a world record. They get into their highs and lows where we learn Chubbs sucks at golf and Beef has the spine of a 90-year-old. They also discuss whether or not they should pay me... not a fun listen for me. Tom talks about his new obsession with Roblox. He tries to cover it up by saying it was for Chipotle rewards codes, but we all know the truth. The talk about robots uses for robots, robots in football, robots that can game, they're huge robots guys. They wrap up with the draft of "Worst Texts to Send to Your Boss" and Beef's question of the week.Enjoy the eppy boys eh?

Remember the TV sitcom “Who's The Boss?” (ABC TV 1984 – 1992) It's time to ask the question again! The Buzz 1: Everyone will be a leader in the workplace in 2030. Work will thrive in teams, not with dictators. The Chief of Work will set the culture in the organization. All workers at all levels will use robotic helpers like Siri or Alexa, for incoming email, scheduling meetings, creating spreadsheets. [simplilearn.com, studies by CBRE and Genesis, WSJ report] The Buzz 2: Being a leader rather than a boss is more critical, especially during times of unpredictable change. In a 2016 Fidelity study, many millennials would be willing to take a significant pay cut if it meant a better job environment. In a 2019 Robert Half study, nearly half of the professionals surveyed reported leaving a job because of a bad boss. [coachmonique.com] The Buzz 3: “The time of the heroic, egocentric leader— the dominant, typically male leader who knows everything, who gives direction to everybody and sets the pace, whom everybody follows because this person is so smart and intelligent and clever — is over. We need 'altrocentric' leaders who focus on others, listen, are intellectually curious and emotionally open, and have empathy.” [washingtonpost] We'll ask Vanessa Egli at Celonis, Bill Jensen at SimplerWork.com, Scott Dust, Ph.D. at Cloverleaf, and Matt Krentz at BCG for their take on The Future of Work and Technology: Who's The [Your] Boss in 2025??

Business executives often credit a breakout role – a unique project or challenge in which they excelled – as a major part of their career success. The increased responsibilities and visibility these roles offer enable leaders to both demonstrate their skills and expand their capabilities in new and interesting ways. In this episode, Lisa Badgley, Senior Vice President at Walgreens and alumna of both the CEO Perspectives (2017) and Leading Women Executives (2011) programs, discusses her breakout role, and the many valuable lessons she acquired along the way.   SHOWNOTES: Advice on Joining Nonprofit Boards [4:11] The Key is Communicating with Your Boss [6:32] Trust in Yourself [12:30] The Power of the Network [15:37] Hindsight is 20/20 Vision [18:44]

When managing a marketing team, success is not necessarily a straight line. No instant inputs and outputs. After all, your team isn't just filled with employees, it's filled with human beings.Complex, fallible, emotional, confusing, questioning human beings. All of us, together, experiencing the human condition while trying to be productive, together, working in an organization.I say this because, if you're not careful you might just fast forward to ramming your way through to the goal. The real challenge is to coax fellow humans along to that goal. Enabling them. Preparing them.In our free digital marketing course, we describe it this way – Website Strategies: 4 ways to prepare your marketing team to increase conversion rates (https://meclabs.com/course/lessons/website-strategies/). Not just, how to get higher conversion rates. No. Ways to prepare your team. And our latest guest manages with the same philosophy. “Pre-sell key ideas internally,” she says. “Build strong CFO relationships,” she says. Don't just charge ahead with gusto. Lay the groundwork for success.Those are just some of the lessons Jeanne Hopkins, Chief Revenue Officer, OneScreen.ai (https://www.onescreen.ai/), shared with Daniel Burstein in our latest podcast episode. Hopkins was the Chief Marketing Officer of MarketingSherpa (https://www.marketingsherpa.com/) and sister publication MarketingExperiments (https://marketingexperiments.com/) before this podcast's host even started here, and he's  been here 13 years. She's had 11 C-level or VP-level marketing roles in her career. And today Hopkins leads a team of 19 (with three more hires slated for this quarter) and manages a $6.2 million budget. In other words, she has a wealth of experience that I thought you could learn a lot from. Stories (with lessons) about what she made in marketingSome lessons from Hopkins that emerged in this discussion:Build strong CFO relationships.Pre-sell key ideas internally.Allow your team to shine.Loyalty first. Hire in batches.Remember your interns.Related content mentioned in this episodeThe Long-Term-Growth Product Launch: Cuisinart has been selling the same food processor since the ‘70s (Podcast Episode #13) (https://www.marketingsherpa.com/article/interview/long-term-growth-business)Table Fries (Hopkins' podcast) (https://tablefries.com/)How to Sell Your Marketing and Advertising Ideas to Your Boss and Clients (with free template) (https://sherpablog.marketingsherpa.com/marketing/how-to-sell-to-your-boss/)Customer Loyalty Chart: Just how big of an effect does customer satisfaction have on loyalty?

Those who don't serve the Savior Jesus Christ as citizens of His heavenly kingdom, among other things, serve the god of their stomachs as His earthly enemies. Don't Let Your Body be Your Boss.

You don't like your boss. It frustrates you that you HAVE to work for them. You believe they are blocking your career, and you don't like going to work every day. You wish you worked for someone else, or you wish you just worked somewhere else – and could move on so you never have to work with this horrible person again.  Every time they open their mouth, you want to cringe. You loathe opening an email from them. They don't care about people. You find them to be cold-hearted and insensitive. You wish they would leave, or you would go first.  To be clear, any boss or person, for that matter, who is harassing, bullying, or discriminating against any of their employees should not be tolerated and immediately reported. If that is the case, you have every reason to hate them, but that is not the topic of this episode.   Not liking your boss is a normal part of your career journey. You will have an opportunity to work for many people, and it's only natural that you will like some of them, and not like others. But if you feel as if your boss doesn't like you, won't promote you, or is always shutting you down, I'm going to share with you a few tips and tricks to help you navigate these tumultuous or contentious relationships with your boss or supervisor so you can SHOW UP at your best and never let them beat you down again. Key Topics & Time Stamps: ·      So, You Don't Like Your Boss (0:08)·      Can You Help Me?
