Think 1:1s are a time suck? Think again. The most successful business leaders use short, regular 1:1 meetings to drive performance, retention, and culture. When done right, 1:1s are where coaching happens, bottlenecks surface, and team members step up. This session teaches a repeatable framework that makes 1:1s productive, not painful — even for the busiest owner.
In-Session Work:
- Learn the VITAL 1:1 structure: check-in, friction, goals, coaching.
- Practice running and receiving a 15-minute 1:1 using real scenarios.
- Build a weekly 1:1 rhythm that fits your calendar without overwhelming it.
- Create a simple shared agenda system to keep conversations focused and actionable.
Outcome: Leave with a clear plan and template to start weekly 1:1s that boost alignment, uncover hidden issues, and build trust — in 30 minutes or less.
