Listen in as I share strategies for having successful 1:1 conversations/meetings with your team and why they are important.

Do you have to have tough conversations?

Yes, you absolutely do. As a leader, this is non-negotiable.

Why should you have them?

Accountability,
Connection,
Support,
Performance management
Annual Performance Reviews

When should you have them?

As soon as possible after an incident or something happened. Once every 3-6 months, annual reviews once a year.

Otherwise, after onboarding:

3, 6 weeks
3, 6 months

For Performance Management related information, listen to episode 36!

How to prepare

Remember, when we're in a stressful situation, we either fight, flight or freeze. So, preparation is key!

What if things go pear-shaped?

Stop the meeting. Say I can see you are getting frustrated, I can see that we won’t agree today, before someone gets upset, let’s reconvene in 24 hours.
