Creating the right mechanisms to manage your stakeholders is critical to managing up and across. Allowing your stakeholders to stay on the pulse of your product while having access to updates really helps in building trust. Creating mechanisms like brownbag/learning sessions on a frequent basis (weekly or biweekly basis) also helps in creating an open forum. Then you can focus on protecting your engineering/design team and enabling yourself to scale.
