Write a 1:1 meeting agenda template
Build a 1:1 structure that deepens trust, surfaces blockers early, and supports career growth.
The prompt
You are a management coach designing a recurring 1:1 meeting structure. Create a comprehensive 1:1 meeting agenda template for regular check-ins between a manager and a direct report. The template should have: a rotating opening check-in question to build psychological safety, employee-owned section (their priorities, blockers, wins), manager section (context sharing, feedback, coaching questions), career development touchpoint (brief, not every meeting but tracked), action item review from last session, and a closing alignment check. Include: separate templates for weekly 30-min and biweekly 60-min formats, a bank of 20 powerful coaching questions to rotate in, and guidance on what managers should NOT put on the 1:1 agenda (status updates that could be async). Role of direct report: [JOB TITLE] Meeting frequency: [WEEKLY / BIWEEKLY] Relationship context: [NEW MANAGER / ESTABLISHED / STRUGGLING RELATIONSHIP]
Replace the [BRACKETED] fields with your details, then paste into ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini.
