A manager operating manual template, a risk-surfacing status update format, and scripts for disagreeing with your boss.

Managing up isn't political maneuvering — it's a real, learnable skill. This toolkit gives you a one-page ""manager operating manual"" worksheet to document how your boss likes to work, a status-update format that surfaces risk early instead of burying it, and ready-to-adapt scripts for disagreeing with a decision or asking for more support.
