1:1 Conversation Template: Structured Check-In Document for Managers

How much of your 1:1s do you actually remember by the time the next one comes round?

Most 1:1 templates are either a bare status-update list, or so heavy nobody keeps them up. This one sits in the middle, structured enough to be genuinely useful, simple enough to actually become a habit.

What is it? A Word document you fill in together during every 1:1, then carry forward session to session. Built from the same 20 years of leading teams behind the Team Huddle Tool. This is the conversation-level companion to that weekly team rhythm.

What's inside?

●      Health & Wellbeing: a genuine check on how someone's actually doing

●      Support Requirements: training, blockers, what they need from you

●      Celebrating Successes: wins that are too easy to let slide by unmentioned

●      Annual Leave: bookings and planning, kept visible

●      Action Log: a running table so nothing agreed gets forgotten

●      Objectives: SMART goals, deadlines, why they matter, tracked over time

●      Development Plan: growth areas and the concrete steps to get there

●      Sign-off: a simple close for both manager and individual

Who is this for?

●      Team leaders and managers who want 1:1s that go beyond a status update

●      Anyone who's tried a 1:1 template before and found it too sparse or too corporate

●      Managers already using the Team Huddle Tool who want the same structure at 1:1 level

Built from real experience. I'm Ella, I've used a version of this exact structure in every 1:1 I've run for over a decade now, across the NHS and corporate teams. It's tried, tested, and refined by actually using it and getting feedback from my teams.
