There are approximately 200 million 1:1 meetings a day around the globe. Yet, the research clearly shows that 1) the effectiveness of these meetings is far from optimal; 2) that managers self-ratings of their skills in conducting these meetings is inflated and not aligned with their directs. Hence, an incredible opportunity exists to fill the skills gap and maximize return of a tremendous time investment. Join Steven Rogelberg and Jeffrey Hull as they preview Steven’s book Glad We Met: The Art and Science of 1:1 Meetings and discuss how to realize the full potential of every 1:1 meeting, without feeling like you are just wallowing in wasted meeting time.
