Boss Management: A New Approach to Workplace Relationships

As the modern workplace evolves, the need for effective communication between employees and their superiors becomes increasingly crucial. The concept of 'Boss Management,' which strategically focuses on understanding and engaging with one's boss, is now more relevant than ever. To commemorate the launch of the book 'Boss Management', ManpowerGroup is hosting a free online seminar on March 11, 2026, aimed at equipping employees with the skills necessary to cultivate positive relationships in the workplace.

The Necessity of Boss Management

In today's environment, issues such as employee disengagement and early resignations are becoming more apparent. Often, these problems stem from a lack of dialogue and mutual trust between managers and their teams. While many companies implement communication strategies for top-down interactions, discussions that empower subordinates to communicate effectively upwards are frequently neglected. Therefore, employees must learn how to align their personal aspirations with organizational expectations through constructive dialogue.

The upcoming seminar, featuring expert senior consultant Takashi Namba, will delve deep into the principles of Boss Management and explore its significance and practical implementation techniques.

Seminar Overview

In this session, participants will explore several crucial aspects:
1. Why Boss Management is Necessary: Understanding the relevance of nurturing a strong relationship with one’s superior.
2. Career Management and Boss Management: How these two aspects intertwine to promote individual and organizational success.
3. Five Essential Mindsets: Key attitudes to adopt for effective communication.
4. Five Essential Skill Sets: Specific abilities required for successful upward management.
