What problem does it solve? One-on-one meetings often degrade into status updates or get canceled, eroding trust and missing real employee concerns. This Skill provides a structured framework for planning, running, and following up on 1:1s so they become genuine relationship and growth conversations. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Cadence & Agenda Planning: Recommended meeting frequency and duration by relationship type (new hire, ongoing report, skip-level, peer), plus a timed agenda structure covering opening, employee topics, manager topics, and closing. - Coaching Techniques: Manager listening methods (ask-don't-tell, naming emotions, the 2-second pause), anti-pattern detection, and SBI-based feedback delivery for both recognition and developmental feedback. - Career Conversations: Quarterly growth discussion prompts and a shared rolling agenda doc template with action item tracking. - Use Case: A new engineering manager preparing for their first weekly 1:1 with a direct report uses this Skill to build a shared agenda doc, prepare open-ended questions, and structure the meeting so the employee's topics come first. ## Quick Start Help me prepare an agenda and talking points for my upcoming 1:1 with my direct report.
