SUPERVISOR 1:1 TEMPLATE

Purpose:
Use this conversation to create clarity, support, and follow-through, not just status updates.

1. Start with the current picture
- What is going well right now?
- Where is the week or shift feeling heavy?
- What issue needs attention before it grows?

2. Review the most important commitments
- What did we say would happen since the last check-in?
- What was completed?
- What slipped, and why?
- What needs a clearer owner or timeline?

3. Coach one meaningful leadership move
- What conversation is being avoided?
- What decision is sitting too long?
- What standard needs to be made more visible?
- What support or coaching would help most right now?

4. Look ahead
- What matters most before the next check-in?
- What risk could knock this off track?
- What help is needed from me?

5. Lock the next step
- One top priority:
- One growth move:
- One follow-up date:
- Who owns the next action:

Good 1:1 conversations create clarity, not just closeness.
