Description

There is one simple, easy-to-implement tool you can use to reduce turnover, streamline workflows, and boost team morale...
One-on-one meetings.
If you didn't know that one-on-ones are a necessity for a thriving team, that's all right—not many do! But after an experience I had with a mentee, I came to realize just how crucial one-on-one meetings with our team members are...and just how much grief we can save ourselves and our team members by having them.
If you think that one-on-ones aren't necessary, take too much time, or won't actually be useful for your specific team...maybe withhold judgment until the end of this episode.
