À propos de ce contenu audio

 You know that sinking feeling when you find out your boss grabbed coffee with one of your team members and you had no idea it was happening?Yeah. Not great.Or maybe you've been on the other side: invited to meet with your skip-level leader and wondering, "Wait... what am I supposed to talk about?"Skip-level meetings are one of those leadership practices that can be incredibly powerful or spectacularly messy. And honestly? Most organizations and leaders are underestimating the cost and downside of ineffective skip-level meetings.When done right, skip levels give senior leaders unfiltered insight into what's actually happening on the ground. They help spot patterns early, make leadership feel accessible, and surface hidden talent that might otherwise go unnoticed.But when done poorly? They destroy trust, create political chaos, and teach people that the fastest way to get something done is to go around their manager.So in this week's episode of The Managed Track Podcast, we're breaking down everything you need to know about skip-level meetings:Why they exist (and what problem they're actually solving)The five biggest ways they go wrong (triangulation, anyone?)Practical playbooks for all three roles: the senior leader running them, the manager whose team is involved, and the employee being invitedI also reached out to 14 HR leaders to get their take on best practices, and I'm sharing all of that consolidated wisdom with you.Whether you're a senior leader trying to stay connected to the work, a manager navigating these conversations with your team, or an individual contributor preparing for your first skip-level meeting, this episode will help you make the most of them while avoiding the common pitfalls.Listen now on Website, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and YouTube.— RESOURCES MENTIONED — Schedule a Leadership Strategy Call with Ramona HERE.
