The Line-Management Conversation

An aide-mémoire for one-to-one meetings, with prompts for before, during and after.

Description

An aide-mémoire for anyone who line-manages a team. It is organised around three stages: before, during and after the meeting.

It includes prompts for setting a clear purpose, listening first, asking questions that deepen the conversation, balancing challenge with support, and following up. It closes on four reference points: clarity, care, challenge and culture.
