It can be used as a meeting agenda template, as it includes some sample questions you can ask during your next meeting with your team member. These questions are focused on gauging employee engagement and probe further discussion to aid career development for your direct report.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What are 1:1s?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Effective 1:1s contribute to all of the elements of improving employee performance. It allows for:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>A safe communication space<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Career discussions<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Linking to broader organisational goals<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Space to check-in<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Relationship building<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Idea sharing<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Listening<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Feedback<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>A 1:1 is a scheduled meeting in your calendar and in your mental map for open-ended and anticipated conversation between a manager and an employee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unlike status reports or tactical meetings, a 1:1 meeting is a place for coaching, mentorship, giving context\u200c or even venting. The 1:1 goes beyond an open door policy and dedicates time on a regular cadence for teammates and leaders to connect and communicate.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1:1s are great ways to regularly check-in with your employees, in addition to more formal&nbsp; <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/nz\/resources\/mid-year-performance-check-in-template\/\">performance reviews<\/a>\/goal-setting sessions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How often should you run 1:1s?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>How often you run your 1:1s will depend on your team size. If you have a large team then fortnightly 1:1s may make more sense, as otherwise your entire week could be taken up by 1:1 preparation. However, if your team\u2019s smaller, then weekly 1:1s can help keep everyone on track.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019ll also depend on how long people have been with your company. For new starters, weekly 1:1s can ease them into their role and help you address any queries they may have. For more experienced employees, they may feel more comfortable with fortnightly 1:1s as they can operate more autonomously.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If your business has a hybrid way of working, it may make sense to schedule 1:1s when your team is in the office together. This may mean a less frequent cadence but having 1:1s in-person can help strengthen the bonds between you and your team.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1:1s can of course be conducted remotely but if you do have them in-office, have them in a quiet space away from the rest of the team. This will help your team members feel comfortable opening up.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2022\/08\/11-meeting5-1024x683.webp\" alt=\"A man and woman smile while looking at a laptop on a wooden table with a bowl of fruit.

Here\u2019s how you can address each problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br><strong>Scheduling conflicts<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Struggling to book a time that\u2019s free for both parties? Re-arranging other meetings, or combining them can help you free up time in your schedule for your 1:1s. It\u2019s worth blocking out some time for 1:1 preparation too, so you can make the most of each meeting.<strong><br><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Lack of structure<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ever felt like you\u2019re not getting the most out of your 1:1s? This may be due to a lack of structure. Without structure 1:1s can turn into status updates, rather than conversations about what\u2019s happening and why. Develop an agenda for each 1:1 beforehand to make these meetings more meaningful, rather than a checklist of what\u2019s going on.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Lack of follow-through<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After a successful 1:1, everyone\u2019s feeling good. However, that\u2019s just one part of the process. Developing a list of action items and ensuring progress is tracked between 1:1s can help ensure that both you and your employee are working towards the right goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Manager vs employee ownership in 1:1s<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Both you and your employee should own what happens in a 1:1. As a manager, it\u2019s your responsibility to set the agenda of the 1:1 and structure the meeting. However, your employee should be encouraged to contribute items to the agenda, track the goals set in the 1:1 and bring their concerns to the meeting.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the manager gets left to drive everything forward, then employees may not be as invested as they would be if they were part of driving each meeting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why are 1:1s important?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/nz\/resources\/how-to-implement-effective-11s\/\">1:1s can strengthen the relationship between managers and their team<\/a>, reduce turnover and increase productivity. For 1:1s to be as effective as possible, they should adhere to three key things:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Scheduled<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Recurring<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Structured<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Not only do 1:1s serve to strengthen professional relationships, they contribute to improved communication and trust within the business, a great benefit for any workplace. By having a transparent relationship with your direct report(s), you&#8217;ll be able to understand how they&#8217;re feeling. Whether they&#8217;re feeling anxious about an upcoming project or need some assistance with a task, 1:1s help you as a manager, support your team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, 1:1s aren&#8217;t just for determining roadblocks or challenges in the workplace. Use this time to find out if your direct report(s) are feeling happy, inspired and engaged with their work. This is important for managers for them to manage their direct report(s) effectively and put strategies in place if something requires attention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Before we continue, ask yourself these two questions.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>When was the last time you checked in with your direct report(s)?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>How do you effectively manage someone you aren&#8217;t regularly checking in with?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"791\" height=\"497\" src=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2022\/08\/11-meeting7.webp\" alt=\"Alt text: &quot;Purple banner with text 'What questions could you ask in a 1:1?' and an illustration of a green and purple magic wand.

However, one month later they resign from their role and you feel blindsided and confused. You assumed that they were working long hours because they loved what they were doing; however, this was not the case. In the exit interview, they reveal that they were feeling extremely burnt out and underappreciated in their role, so when the opportunity came about to jump ship, they did.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We&#8217;ve all seen this scenario time and time again, and it&#8217;s something that we believe can be avoided with better communication. If you knew that your direct report was feeling under-appreciated, you could have taken the appropriate action to reward and recognise their efforts. If you knew that they were feeling burnt out, you could have reduced their workload, expanded the team or encouraged them to take leave.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the end of the day, poor communication can be detrimental to business success. To decrease your risk of losing top talent, we suggest that you implement 1:1s, pronto!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"601\" src=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2022\/08\/11-meeting4-1024x601.webp\" alt=\"Smiling woman with headphones, sitting at a wooden desk with a laptop and open notebook, surrounded by plants in a bright, modern room.\" class=\"wp-image-49301\" srcset=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2022\/08\/11-meeting4-1024x601.webp 1024w, https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2022\/08\/11-meeting4-300x176.webp 300w, https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2022\/08\/11-meeting4-768x451.webp 768w, https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2022\/08\/11-meeting4-864x508.webp 864w, https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2022\/08\/11-meeting4-440x258.webp 440w, https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2022\/08\/11-meeting4.webp 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Examples of a good 1:1 agenda vs a poor 1:1 agenda<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Preparing an agenda for a 1:1 can mean the difference between making the most of the time and wasting it. Here is a comparison of what makes a good 1:1 agenda and what a poor 1:1 agenda looks like.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Element<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Effective 1:1<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Ineffective 1:1<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Preparation<\/strong><\/td><td>Both parties prepare talking points beforehand<\/td><td>Manager turns up unprepared with no plan<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Balance<\/strong><\/td><td>Mix of tactical, developmental and personal topics<\/td><td>Only talk about project updates&nbsp;<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Listening<\/strong><\/td><td>Manager asks questions and invites follow-ups, creating space for the employee to speak<\/td><td>Manager talks 90% of the time<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Follow-Up<\/strong><\/td><td>Action items are tracked and reviewed between 1:1s<\/td><td><a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/nz\/resources\/meeting-minutes-template\/\">No documentation or follow-up from previous meetings<\/a><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Tone<\/strong><\/td><td>Safe, collaborative and open, with two-way dialogue prioritised<\/td><td>Feels rushed, or like the manager is lecturing the employee<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to run an effective 1:1<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A well-structured approach can greatly enhance the effectiveness of one-on-one meetings. Following these steps will ensure your sessions are productive and meaningful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 1: Prepare in advance<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Effective preparation is essential. Both parties should come with a meeting agenda that includes topics, questions, and updates on previous action items. For a first-time one-on-one, set a welcoming and respectful tone that encourages openness. For recurring meetings, review past notes to track progress and ensure a focused discussion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, an HR manager could review the employee&#8217;s recent performance data, highlight areas for discussion, and prompt the employee to reflect on their challenges and accomplishments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 2: Set a comfortable environment<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The location of the meeting plays a key role in its success. Opt for a quiet, private space to maintain confidentiality and avoid distractions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For instance, a supervisor might book a conference room or suggest a walk outside to create a relaxed, open environment conducive to candid conversation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 3: Foster open discussion and active listening<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Start by reviewing the meeting agenda, then dive into key discussion points. Encourage open dialogue by asking open-ended questions and listening attentively to the responses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A manager might ask, \u201cWhat support do you need to reach your current goals?\u201d This promotes a two-way conversation and shows that the employee&#8217;s input is valued.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 4: Recap and define action items<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Conclude the meeting with a summary of the key points discussed, agree on actionable next steps and set deadlines for any tasks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, if an employee is interested in further professional development, the manager could assign them to explore available courses and schedule a follow-up meeting to decide on next steps for enrolment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"792\" height=\"496\" src=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2022\/08\/11-meeting3.webp\" alt=\"Purple-themed template with a header asking for more formal 1:1 session questions.

Here are some key benefits of conducting regular 1:1 meetings:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Improved communication<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>1:1s provide a dedicated space for open and honest communication between a manager and their team members. This fosters transparency, trust\u200c and a deeper understanding of each other&#8217;s perspectives, leading to better collaboration and a smoother workflow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Increased employee engagement<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Regular 1:1s demonstrate that managers value their team members&#8217; input and well-being. This sense of support and attention to individual needs can significantly boost employee engagement and job satisfaction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Enhanced productivity<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>By addressing challenges, roadblocks\u200c and concerns on time, 1:1s help remove obstacles that might hinder productivity. The meetings also serve as a platform for setting clear goals, aligning expectations&nbsp; and providing the necessary resources for success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Building trust and professional relationships<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The confidential and supportive environment of 1:1s encourages team members to share their thoughts, concerns\u200c and aspirations openly. This builds trust between managers and employees, fostering stronger professional relationships and loyalty to the organisation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Career development and growth opportunities<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>1:1s offer a dedicated forum to discuss career aspirations, skills development\u200c and advancement opportunities. This proactive approach to career growth empowers employees to take charge of their professional development and helps keep valuable talent within the organisation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Real-time feedback<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>1:1s facilitate ongoing feedback, enabling managers to provide timely guidance and recognition for accomplishments. Constructive feedback, when given promptly, helps employees make the necessary adjustments and improve their performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Alignment with organisational goals<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>During 1:1s, managers can make sure that their team members&#8217; efforts align with the broader objectives of the organisation. This ensures everyone is working towards common goals, driving the overall success of the company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Effective problem-solving<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>1:1s offer a platform to address and resolve issues, conflicts\u200c and concerns before they escalate. Managers can work collaboratively with team members to find effective solutions and prevent potential challenges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Employee well-being<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>By actively listening to team members&#8217; well-being and stress levels, managers can identify signs of burnout and take necessary measures to support their employees&#8217; work-life balance and overall well-being.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Continuous improvement<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The flexibility and adaptability of 1:1s allows for ongoing improvement in communication styles, meeting formats\u200c and approaches to addressing individual needs. This iterative process makes sure that \u200c1:1 meetings remain relevant and effective over time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The art of feedback<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Day-to-day feedback happens organically during conversations \u2014 for example: \u201cAlex, I think you could improve your knowledge on this by speaking to Dave\u201d. However, if you&#8217;re looking to give more structured feedback in real time but you can&#8217;t directly talk to the person, document it. Once documented in a central place, you can:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Pick a time and a medium for \u200cfeedback. There are certain types of feedback that you are best to give in a conversation (by video or in-person).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Decide whether this feedback \u200cmight be taken the wrong way if not given in a conversation.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"789\" height=\"454\" src=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2022\/08\/11-meeting2.webp\" alt=\"Alt text: Presentation slide titled &quot;The Art of Feedback&quot; with advice on providing feedback.
