Do you need to lead one-on-one meetings in your workplace?

• Briefing   

• Problem-solving and addressing issues   

• Care and support   

• Guidance   

• Coaching or mentoring   

• Performance feedback 

…Even reprimands      

But often, people get promoted to a level where they need to lead these kinds of meeting, without getting any training.   

So, in this course, we’ll cover:

• The different types of one-on-one meeting   

• Planning and preparing your meeting
