It really depends!
Some strategies I used:
- Get to be friend with them, chit-chat, so that they allow you in
- Cut the middle-man, just step over them, talk to the boss
- Don't do fair play. Just lie, or trick them to get what you want.
- verdverm 4y agoThese all seem underhanded and likely to create more problems and corporate culture issues
- lcnPylGDnU4H9OF 4y agoI can see that about 3, not really about 1, and not at all about 2. Ideally, 2 wouldn't be necessary but I don't see how that approach makes things worse, in particular when the "middle-man" mentioned is accurately described as "unqualified". There isn't any reason the person's conduct (opinion-forming ability?) couldn't be discussed constructively in such an instance. Personally, 3 is a complete non-starter and I'd just spend my efforts elsewhere.

- verdverm 4y ago#2 is like crying to their mommy or daddy when you get told no. You should work it out with the person directly, and if not possible, involve both managers #1 is all about creating highschool clicks and not a healthy adult behavior. The GP post has a noticeable lack a maturity and experience
- yellowapple 4y agoIf you're at the point where these are options worth considering, then chances are the corporate culture has already gone to shit. The ideal solution in such a scenario would be to find a new job, but not all of us are spherical cows in frictionless regions of spacetime.
