Last week we talked about accountability and why trust is the foundation for holding employees accountable. This week, let’s get practical.
The problem? One-on-ones often feel awkward, get canceled, or turn into quick status updates. Managers end up doing all the talking, rushing through them, or skipping them entirely until annual reviews roll around. The result? Frustration, missed opportunities, and a team that doesn’t feel supported.
The solution? Structure your one-on-ones so they build trust, create connection, and drive accountability. In this episode, I walk you through what managers get wrong — and 5 simple steps you can use to make your meetings actually matter.
Key Takeaways
- One-on-ones are for coaching and trust, not status updates
- A repeatable 5-step structure turns awkward meetings into growth conversations
- Written commitments at the end create accountability without micromanaging
