1-2-1s are a powerful leadership tool, so why do most of them feel like a waste of time?

Send us Fan MailWhether you manage a team, lead other managers, or you're the one sitting in the 1-2-1 wondering when it'll end, then this post is for you.You know how 1-2-1s roll, you’ve got the recurring slot in the diary for thirty minutes, maybe even an hour, once a month where you sit down, run through what’s going on, talk about workload, maybe mention a few things coming up and then you both go back to your desks. Job done.Except it isn’t, not really. Because 1-2-1s aren’t meant to be operational. They’re actually meant to be relational.Calm, intentional career advice that works.Thanks for listening, if there is anything else careers related that you would like me to delve into then feel free to drop me a message.
