ChineseRunning Effective 1:1s
开展高效的1:1会议
Scope
适用范围
Covers
- Designing a lightweight 1:1 operating system (purpose, cadence, meeting types, shared docs)
- Running 1:1s as coaching conversations (not just status updates)
- Holding career development conversations (life story → future dreams → action plan)
- Doing basic wellbeing/recovery check-ins (joy/energy) without crossing into therapy/medical advice
- Running skip-levels and special sessions (e.g., post-crisis “make them feel heard” 1:1s)
When to use
- “My 1:1s are turning into status updates—help me redesign them.”
- “Create a 1:1 agenda + shared doc template for me and my direct reports.”
- “I’m a new manager—set up my 1:1 cadence and question bank.”
- “Help me run better career conversations in 1:1s.”
- “Plan a skip-level program and templates.”
When NOT to use
- You need HR/legal guidance, an investigation, or a performance improvement plan (involve HR/legal; use your company process)
- You need a project status meeting cadence (use team/ops rituals; 1:1s should not be the primary status channel)
- The situation involves immediate safety/mental health crisis (seek professional help and follow company policy)
涵盖内容
- 设计轻量化的1:1操作系统（目标、节奏、会议类型、共享文档）
- 将1:1会议作为辅导对话开展（而非仅仅是状态更新）
- 进行职业发展对话（人生经历→未来愿景→行动计划）
- 开展基础的健康/恢复状态检查（愉悦感/精力水平），但不涉及心理咨询/医疗建议
- 开展越级会议和特殊场次会议（例如：危机后“倾听心声”的1:1会议）
适用场景
- “我的1:1会议变成了状态更新，帮我重新设计一下。”
- “为我和我的直属下属创建1:1会议议程和共享文档模板。”
- “我是新任管理者，帮我设置1:1会议节奏和问题库。”
- “帮我在1:1会议中更好地开展职业发展对话。”
- “规划一套越级会议方案和模板。”
不适用场景
- 你需要HR/法务指导、调查或绩效改进计划（请联系HR/法务，遵循公司流程）
- 你需要项目状态会议节奏（使用团队/运营例行会议；1:1会议不应作为主要的状态汇报渠道）
- 情况涉及即时安全/心理健康危机（寻求专业帮助并遵循公司政策）
Inputs
输入信息
Minimum required
- Your role and context (manager level, org type, function, time zones)
- Who the 1:1s are for (directs, skip-levels) and relationship stage (new, stable, strained)
- Current 1:1 cadence and what’s not working (2–5 concrete examples)
- What you want to change (coaching, feedback, career growth, wellbeing, alignment, retention)
- Constraints: meeting load, confidentiality/PII rules, any HR policies, time box/deadline
Missing-info strategy
- Ask up to 5 questions from references/INTAKE.md (3–5 at a time).
- If key details are missing, proceed with a default 1:1 operating system and clearly label assumptions.
- Do not request secrets or sensitive personal data; use anonymized summaries.
最低要求信息
- 你的角色和背景（管理层级、组织类型、职能、时区）
- 1:1会议的对象（直属下属、越级下属）以及关系阶段（新建立、稳定、紧张）
- 当前1:1会议的节奏以及存在的问题（2–5个具体例子）
- 你希望做出的改变（辅导、反馈、职业成长、健康状态、对齐、留存）
- 约束条件：会议负荷、保密/PII规则、任何HR政策、时间限制/截止日期
缺失信息处理策略
- 从references/INTAKE.md中最多提出5个问题（每次3–5个）。
- 如果关键信息缺失，使用默认1:1操作系统推进，并明确标注假设条件。
- 不得索要机密或敏感个人数据；使用匿名化总结。

Workflow (8 steps)
工作流程（8个步骤）
1) Intake + boundaries + safety
1) 信息收集+边界+安全
- Inputs: user context; references/INTAKE.md.
- Actions: Confirm goals for 1:1s, current failure modes, constraints, and any HR/safety boundaries. Decide which deliverables are needed (full pack vs just templates).

- 输入: 用户背景；references/INTAKE.md。
- 行动: 确认1:1会议的目标、当前存在的问题、约束条件以及任何HR/安全边界。确定所需交付物（完整包或仅模板）。
- 输出: 背景快照+假设/未知事项清单。
- 检查: 1:1会议的目标明确，且不与HR/法务政策冲突。
2) Define the 1:1 purpose and “what goes where”
2) 定义1:1会议的目标与“话题归属”
- Inputs: goals + failure modes.
- Actions: Separate topics into channels: team status rituals vs 1:1 coaching, career, feedback, and blockers. Define what the 1:1 should consistently cover (and what it should not).
