Most managers run 1:1s wrong.

Here’s the framework that actually works:

The 3-Part Meeting Structure That Drives Results:


1. Look Back ( 10 mins)
↳ Review last meeting’s action items
↳ Celebrate wins, however small
↳ Address roadblocks head-on


2. Look Present ( 30 mins)
↳ Current projects status
↳ Resource needs
↳ Team dynamics check


3. Look Forward ( 20 mins)
↳ Next sprint priorities
↳ Career development goals
↳ Specific actions for next week


Power Tips That Make It Stick:

1. Send agenda 24hrs before
↳ No agenda = No meeting


2. Document actions in real-time
↳ Shared doc, visible accountability


3. End with clear ownership
↳ Who does what by when


Remember:
→ Structure creates freedom
→ Goals without tracking are just wishes
→ Consistency beats intensity


Which tip will you implement in your next 1:1?
