ADVICE

Direct Report Owns The Agenda

  • Let the direct report set the one-on-one agenda and treat the meeting as their time.
  • Coach people to use that time for substantive topics, not just a to-do list.
ANECDOTE

Weekly Walks Built Their Ritual

  • Kim and Jason used to take weekly walks together as their one-on-one ritual.
  • They found walking created the right informal mindset and helped them get to know each other.
ADVICE

Open With Personal Check-In

  • Start one-on-ones with a personal check-in and then confirm what the direct report wants to cover.
  • Ask about their list so anxiety doesn't build and the meeting stays focused.
