One-on-one check-in meetings are one of the most valuable ways a boss and employee can spend time together. However, often that time is wasted because there is no prep and planning.
Many employees aren’t sure what the boss wants to cover and so they show up to the meeting expecting the boss to take the lead. Meanwhile, many boss’ believe that this is the employee’s time they’re just ready and willing to be of service in whatever way the employee needs.
Without preparation, both parties are directionless. The meeting wanderers around but isn’t very productive.
To help you, the employee, make the best use of the one-to-one time, and increase the value for your boss as well, I’ve created a Meeting Prep Worksheet.
