How regular 1:1 meetings build trust with team members

My tips for 1:1 meetings that make a difference:

  • Keep regularly scheduled appointment times with each team member and view these meetings like a meeting with your most valuable client.
  • Keep these meetings short and sweet, limited to about 20 minutes per team member.
  • When issues are identified in 1:1 meetings, they should be brought up with your leadership team to be addressed.
  • Give each team member your focused attention during 1:1s.
  • Ask key questions during 1:1s about wins and successes, going the extra mile to add value and save money, quarterly career goals, key results, and working from their strengths. Be mindful of open-ended vs. closed-ended questions.
