zarządzanie wszerz organizacji
When we talk about managing, we usually mean managing down, managing employees who work for us, but what about managing across and up? That means influencing other colleagues at your level and even your own leadership

Managing across the organization is a horse of a different color. Getting things done through others is a key management tenet. Right? However, the difference is that when we manage across the organization, we’re really talking about influence, not management and control. Some contend that managing across is more difficult than managing up because it requires a different set of skills, including emotional intelligence, self-awareness, self-regulation, motivation, empathy, and effective social skills (See Daniel Goleman’s writings on Emotional Intelligence).
Managing across the organization gets tricky because we often do not have the authority to go along with the responsibility we’ve been given to accomplish a particular goal or objective. While this is often a challenging situation, it can be overcome. Here are a few tips:

Key Observations of their Research on Knowledge Workers:
Knowledge Workers often spend a large percentage of their time, up to 40%, on low-value tasks that can be performed by others.
They spend a significant amount of time on “desk work” and low-value administrative activities.
Another large area of time use is in "managing across", such as attending non-essential meetings with other departments.

We interviewed 45 knowledge workers in 39 companies across eight industries in the United States and Europe to see how they spent their days. We found that even the most dedicated and impressive performers devoted large amounts of time to tedious, non-value-added activities such as desk work and “managing across” the organization (for example, meetings with people in other departments). - https://hbr.org/2013/09/make-time-for-the-work-that-matters

How Do Knowledge Workers Spend Their Time?
In 2013, knowledge workers spent two-thirds of their time either “managing across” in meetings, often with many colleagues, or doing “desk-based work” on their own. Externally focused work (e.g. talking to customers), managing down (coaching and supporting subordinates) and managing up (interacting with the boss and other senior people) all got very little time, while training and personal development got almost none. - https://greatpeopleinside.com/productivity-and-working-from-...
--
The bigger areas of concern were around the things people couldn’t do well in a virtual environment:
1. Take managing across first: It’s not so hard for an existing working group to stay on course when working remotely, but the challenges of getting started on something new (the forming/storming stages of team development) or resolving internal conflicts are enormous. Of course, these activities can be done over Zoom – just not as well. Few people are energised by informal online get-togethers. As one person said, “We are slowly losing the social glue that holds us together.” - https://productivityknowhow.com/productivity/knowledge-worke...
