If you want to improve your leadership and your relationships with your team, this post is for you!
It’s Cyber Monday in the United States and many online retailers are offering special discounts on their products. So I want to extend a very special offer to you for my popular One-on-One Meeting Guide and Template.
Where are You?
No matter how hard you try, you’ll never be able to fully develop your team members without sitting down long enough to listen to their needs, their wants, their ideas, and their dreams. To effectively develop people, every leader must be participating in regular conversations with each direct report in which the team member feels complete freedom to discuss any topic.
These one-on-one meetings are your opportunity to listen, to coach, to mentor – to lead.
[Tweet “Most people want to follow someone who knows where they’re going.”]
And they need you to create an environment that gives meaning and energy to their work.
They’re trading their time – their life – to serve within your organization as a part of your team. Are they trading it for something that is worthwhile?
Too Little Too Late
Many management conversations occur reactively in the normal course of business – in group meetings, in emails, phone conversations, in passing, or when a significant challenge demands attention. With little planning or intention, these communications are often haphazard, incomplete, and too little too late.
The alternative is to proactively and intentionally plan those interactions to give you, your team, and your organization the best opportunity to succeed. In short, you should plan regular one-on-one management conversations with your boss and with every direct report you supervise.
There can be no exceptions.

Here’s the good news – you don’t have to have it all figured out right now. Just start with a simple plan for the meeting that prepares you to listen.
To help me prepare for my One-on-One Meetings, I developed a One-on-One Meeting Template. This template quickly became the most searched item on my blog from internet search engines. And it has been downloaded 1000’s of times since 2009.
My template is a simple form that you can use immediately to prepare for O3’s and for taking notes while you’re in the meeting. The download also includes:
- A step-by-step guide for planning One-on-One Meetings
- Tons of questions to plan your O3’s
- An agenda form to help your team members prepare for the meeting
