Intended audience: staff, managers, department chairs, faculty
Whether you are managing direct reports or "managing up" one-on-one meetings are one of the most powerful tools for building trust, strengthening engagement, and driving performance.

In this interactive workshop, participants will explore practical techniques to structure 1:1 conversations with purpose by setting clear agendas, creating space for open dialogue, and offering feedback. Participants will leave with resources including a ready-to-use, win-win 1:1 template that makes preparation easier and helps transform every check-in into a meaningful opportunity for growth and connection.
