Leaders who run effective 1-on-1s are 2x as likely to have team members operating at the highest level of engagement, known as “Creative Excitement.” – FranklinCovey Insights
Amid the rush of daily operations and last-minute emergencies, many leaders feel they don’t have time on their calendars for 1-on-1s with each direct report. And if they do make time for them, these meetings might be primarily positioned as status updates on projects or urgent priorities.
But data shows that leaders who schedule 1-on-1s with consistency and run them effectively are able to leverage this facetime as a performance multiplier. When you ensure a regular cadence of connection, establish a system of shared accountability, and individualise each meeting to fit the needs of your direct reports, you’ll build high-trust relationships that unleash creativity, innovation, and performance.
Winning 1-on-1s build trust, align expectations, and drive results.
One crucial aspect of effective 1-on-1s is a system of shared accountability. This system establishes collective ownership, models transparency, aligns mutual expectations, and improves problem solving, ensuring that both parties are equally invested in attending, participating, and establishing next steps to maintain momentum.
Accountability breeds response-ability.
