Improving the 1:1

Who leads your 1:1 meetings?

If it is you, then you are making a common leadership mistake.

The 1:1 belongs to your direct report.

Your role is to ask great questions.

A great one to start with: What’s on your mind?

Your questions can help drive the conversation.

Remember, it is your direct report’s meeting.

But as the leader you can help guide thinking and decisions.
