What you will be able to do

  • Set up a recurring routine: Decide on a weekly schedule, length, and shared agenda format for one-on-ones with each direct report.
  • Run effective conversations: Open meetings to invite honest input, ask follow-up questions to uncover blockers, and give constructive feedback without derailing the agenda.
  • End with clear next steps: Close each one-on-one with concrete, written action items owned by specific people.
  • Adapt to each person: Adjust your approach for quiet, talkative, and remote reports, and change the frequency or format when a meeting isn't working.
