'''Managing up and managing down''' is studied as part of management studies as how a middle manager should effectively deal with his or her manager and with his or her subordinates. Additionally, managing up on its own may be a useful skill for a subordinate who in turn does not manage anyone. It is generally considered to be distinct from "[[sucking up]]" or "[[kissing up]]" to the manager and "[[kicking down]]" to subordinates as it involves benign above board [[social influence|influencing]] rather than underhand [[Psychological manipulation|manipulation]].<ref>Turk W Defense AT&L: March-April 2007 [http://uthscsa.edu/gme/documents/TheArtofManagingUp.pdf The Art of Managing Up]</ref><ref name=Johnson>Johnson W 15 December 2014 [https://hbr.org/2014/12/managing-up-without-sucking-up Managing Up Without Sucking Up] Harvard Business Review</ref><ref>Susan Price S Ivy Exec [https://www.ivyexec.com/executive-insights/2014/manage-without-kissing Managing Up Without Kissing Up]</ref>
