334. The Perfect Ending for a 1:1 Meeting (Clarity is everything)

Performance management gets a bad rap these days. There’s a school of thought that formal performance management processes do more harm than good. And in the hands of an inept leader working in a poor culture, that’s probably true. But I’m a huge believer in the power of 1:1 meetings and, even though formal performance meetings are just one example, some leaders use the trend against performance management as an excuse for not conducting 1:1 meetings at all. There’s a host of compelling reasons for stepping up your game on 1:1 meetings, and today I look at some of these in detail. In this episode, I help you to sharpen your focus by defining the primary objective of a performance discussion. And, the big bonus: I give you a practical technique for closing your 1:1 meetings that will radically improve your chances of the individual delivering on their commitments.————————Get the insider edge with the No Bullsh!t Leadership Hub on Skool - completely FREE!Join like-minded leaders who love the podcast and dive into exclusive resources, real conversations, and weekly challenges designed to sharpen your leadership game.Don’t miss out, join now!————————You can connect with me at:Website: https://www.yourceomentor.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/yourceomentorInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/yourceomentorLinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/martin-moore-075b001/Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@YourCEOMentor————————Our mission here at Your CEO Mentor is to improve the quality of leaders, globally. Your boss wants more with less.
