Prep and debrief your 1-on-1s

‍TL;DR:

‍

‍

The best managers already run good 1-on-1s. But they're not the problem.

If you run People at a 200-person company, your job isn't one manager. It's all of them. Engagement goes up when every team gets a steady, consistent 1-on-1 - not just the good ones.

So why doesn't that happen? It's not that managers don't care. They're busy. A consistent process is one more thing on a full plate, so it slips.

To fix it, you have to do two things:

1. Make it dead simple to run - clear, fast, no extra work.
2. Show managers what they get out of it, not just what HR wants.

That's what this skill is for. It makes a good 1-on-1 the easy path, and gives the manager something back every time.

What it does

Two things. One command each.

Prep. Type 'effy, prep for my 1-1 with [name]'. It reads your last 5 meetings with that person, pulls open action items and patterns, and builds an agenda with coaching questions and one feedback point.

Notes. Type 'effy, notes after my 1-1 with [name]'. It reads the transcript and writes clean notes - decisions, action items, feedback, and development signals.
