The people you manage will likely perform better if you appropriately apply various working styles.

Managing upwards, if done right, is not manipulation or 'sucking up' to people in powerful positions. It is about learning techniques and strategies to help you be more effective at work and happier in your job. You can't control your boss, but you can influence your relationship with them by taking steps that build understanding and foster mutual respect.
