Most One-To-Ones Suck
Most one-to-ones suck. Wanna know why? 🌶️
You talk too much. 😈
Ouch, I know. Sorry buddy.
Wanna fix it? Here’s how.
Start with an opener that invites curiosity:
❓ What’s on your mind?
❓ How can I help you ?
❓ What’s the best use of our time today?
🤐 Then stop talking. I mean it! Yes, you.
From there, you may do these three things:
✅ Listen.
✅ Ask questions.
✅ Clarify what you heard.
It will feel weird.
You will have a ferocious urge to share your ever so valuable opinions.
🚨 Don’t.
❌ No anecdotes.
❌ No advice.
❌ No opinions.
💡Instead, breathe. ❓Ask a question instead.
The more you do this, the more magic you’ll unlock:
❤️ Deeper trust.
❤️ Real insight.
❤️ Actual connection.
Welcome to not being sh*t at one-to-ones my friend.
You won’t go back, trust me.
