Productive working relationships are a crucial, but challenging component in collaborative grant projects. Grant professionals are often tasked with bringing these partners together, which means addressing challenges, including miscommunication, conflicting views, and different personalities, and working styles. Managing up is a skill and tool grant professionals can apply to successfully lead this collaborative work, avoid frustration, and keep moving projects forward to ultimately craft high-quality, competitive proposals.
