A dreaded question. But should it be? Feedback culture and feedback loops have become hot-button topics in leadership circles, but how do you give feedback effectively? Listen in as Matt Tresidder, the CEO of Leadr, instructs us on the art of having successful, effective 1-on-1 meetings. "The single most important leadership development tool that a manager has is the 1-on-1 meeting with his/her direct reports."         In this episode, you'll learn... - how to prioritize 1-on-1 meetings - how to prioritize people over projects - the 5 key components to successful 1-on-1s - how to prepare for a meeting--both collaboratively and visibly - where you should meet - whether or not all 1-on-1 meetings should look the same - the scorecard to measure a 1-on-1 About Matt: Matt Tresidder is Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder at [Leadr](https://www.leadr.com/), a people development software on a mission to develop one million leaders.
