Let’s talk about managing up
Jinfo Event
20th April 2023

Description
We often talk about Stakeholder Engagement in terms of working with senior clients and budget holders; but managing your own manager is another vital facet of your work.
Having a healthy, positive relationship with your manager makes work life both productive and rewarding. But it can be difficult. Senior leaders often have limited empathy for your work, their immediate priorities may not reflect your longer term strategy and reporting structures can change frequently.
We will use this session to share and explore top tips for information leaders to work successfully with their managers.
We will be joined by Jeffrey Voight (Global Head of Facilities Services at Willis Towers Watson). Jeff will provide his invaluable perspective as a senior corporate leader, having managed many different operational teams, including Information Services.
Community sessions are for Jinfo clients only, and spaces are limited.

"The goalposts keep moving..."
1st March 2023
Corporate belt-tightening continues and we are all being asked to do "more with less". But how practical is it to maintain service levels with diminishing resources? Before the straw breaks the proverbial camel's back, how do information leaders proactively manage stakeholders' expectations and resist the urge to "make do and mend" when budgets are tight?
