Beyond The Agenda

It’s tempting to adopt a passive stance during 1-on-1 meetings with your manager. After all, it may seem simpler to let your supervisor take the lead and provide directives while you nod along. However, actively listening, asking thoughtful questions and engaging in meaningful conversations can benefit both of you. It demonstrates your commitment to shared goals, a strong sense of accountability, a drive for success and a general appreciation for your manager’s guidance.
