84: How Are Your 1:1’s Going?

In this episode, Jason dives into the importance of monthly informal one-on-one meetings and how they can transform team communication and performance. He explains how using self-assessments can create space for honest conversations between leaders and team members, especially when there are gaps in perception. These meetings offer a chance to give timely feedback, clarify expectations, and support growth in a consistent and approachable way.

Jason also addresses common objections like not having enough time, managing too many people, or believing feedback isn’t necessary if someone is “just doing their job.” He explains why those are excuses and outlines how to build regular check-ins into your ideal week. This episode is full of practical advice for leaders who want to build stronger, more accountable teams through consistent and caring communication.
