WHAT IS THE RIGHT WAY TO TALK TO YOUR DIRECTS?

WRONG WAY NO. 1:

"SORRY GUYS, BUT I'M

TO REACH ME IF IT'S SERIOUS"

SOUNDS LIKE YOU? YEAH, YOU'RE COOL, BUT

SINCE NOBODY NEEDS THEM AND THEIR WORK

YOUR LACK OF INFORMATION LEADS TO

ISSUES DON'T GET RESOLVED ON TIME, HENCE CONSTANT

DOESN'T SOUND RIGHT, DOES IT? BUT THERE'S A SOLUTION!

WRONG WAY NO. 2:

MY TIME IS YOUR TIME!"

EVERYONE IS AN ADULT HERE, RIGHT?"

"WHAT, AGENDA? UMM... NO, WE CAN CHAT ABOUT

AMUSING, ISN'T IT? BUT AGAIN, IT IS

WITH ALL THESE PEOPLE COMING IN WITH THEIR ISSUES

SINCE THERE IS NO AGENDA OR MINUTES

WITH EVERYONE TRYING TO REACH YOU, AMONG YOUR DIRECTS IT'S

THE ANSWER IS

INSTANTLY, WEEKLY, MONTHLY, BIANNUALLY

URGENT ISSUES, FEEDBACK

PROJECT PROGRESS, NOT-SO-URGENT ISSUES

KPI'S, NEXT PROJECT GOALS, SYSTEMIC ISSUES

CAREER DEVELOPMENT, ENGAGEMENT, NEXT PROJECTS

USE YOUR CALENDAR SOFTWARE TO SET UP

ARE ESSENTIAL! LAST MEETING'S MINUTES IS THIS MEETING'S AGENDA

SINCE THE AGENDA IS ALWAYS KNOWN

BUT SET UP AN ADDITIONAL MEETING IF NEEDED
