Course Overview
In most careers, moving up means managing more. More people, more projects, more budget, and most importantly, more impact.
In large organizations, managing a team can increase your earnings by an additional 50k-200k+ each year.
To manage successfully, you must deliver increasingly complex projects and gain visibility among senior leaders. This requires proficiency in four key areas:
- Managing stakeholders
- Managing people
- Managing product outcomes
- Managing project deliveries
As you unlock these additional skills, your managerial reach will expand. These are pillars we’ll unpack and practice each week in this course.
What You’ll Learn in this Course

2️⃣ Project Management (Session 2)
- Stay organized across various communication channels, projects and timelines
- Keep everyone apprised of past, present and upcoming work through effective communication
- Adapt to change as stakeholders revise requirements and timelines evolve
3️⃣ Stakeholder Management (Session 3)
- Manage expectations and competing priorities across a diverse set of stakeholders, including your own managers
- Market your team's work to gain visibility throughout the firm and from senior leadership
- Build relationships with senior leaders who influence project assignments and promotion evaluations
4️⃣ People Management (Session 4)

- Motivate and inspire your team to keep them engaged and productive
- Hold your team to high standards so stakeholders receive the high quality they are used to
Why You Should Take this Course
- Most professionals plateau in earnings, not due to lack of technical skill, but because they do not expand their managerial responsibilities
- Earnings tend to rise exponentially as you manage more people and projects
- New managers tend to specialize in one form of management at the expense of others:
- They can pitch their ideas and product roadmap, but struggle to execute on them over sustained periods of time
- They can organize projects and communications, but fail to build strong stakeholder relationships and allies
- They can personally execute on projects, but cannot train and delegate to their team to perform the same work
