MEETING PRACTICE

A 1:1 that starts with context.

A useful 1:1 creates room for judgement, support and decisions. A little shared context helps you spend less of it reconstructing the week.

A day calendar connects the next product check-in to its carried topics and preparation

Before: find the open thread.

Review what you agreed last time. Note the commitment that has moved, the one that has stalled and any change in priorities. Bring a short list of topics, not a transcript of the week.

During: choose the conversation.

Ask which topic would make the biggest difference today. Separate a status update from a decision or a request for support. Leave room for something neither of you anticipated.

After: make the commitment usable.

Write down what happens next, who owns it and when you will return to it. Include the reason behind a decision so it still makes sense at the next meeting.

START WITH A BETTER QUESTION

Make the next conversation count.

What has changed since we last spoke?
Where would a decision or support help?
What will we each do next?
