in her monthly 1:1's with them, they love talking her ear off about their personal problems - sick/dying parents and spouses, divorces, etc. im surprised people get so personal with their managers.

i guess she comes off as compassionate and likeable and a good listener so people feel comfortable with her.

you guys are weirdos and once a month isn't enough for 1:1's unless it's like an actual call center where you manage 100 losers, in which case I would probably just never meet with them.

I do weekly 1:1 with all my directs, weekly direct team call, weekly extended dotted line team call, weekly team leadership call, weekly dotted line leadership call, weekly all hands or management only calls every other week. this is probably too many calls and cuts into my poasting and golf time.

she has 15 direct reports. she talks to most of them much more frequently -- individually, in small groups, or both -- about substantive projects.

it seems the scheduled monthly 1:1's are more big picture what they're doing and overal org stuff and career development, rather than about the substantive project of the day.

I need to believe this is flame, but I've worked in enough orgs to know some places actually operate like this and then wonder why nobody gets anything done on an individual or team level...because they spend half the work week in meetings that are completely irrelevant and could have been accomplished with an email.
