2024 FORTUNE

I don't believe in one-on-one meetings with his reports. Very few. Well, why don't you? Almost every CEO did one-on-ones, and they realized that the one-on-one meeting owns the agenda. And what happens is they often don't talk about the things you want talk about, you become their therapist. you problems, but oftentimes you problems that you want other people in the room to hear. In other words, there are very few employees one-on-one without other people. about something, if they're having a difficult time personal life, if they want in something, they don't feel safe telling a group, but that should be infrequent. frequently, that is a very ominous sign for your organization. So Jensen Huang says, one-on-ones everyone to be part of and get the wisdom. When you make lots of one-on-one decisions then people feel like they don't have the decision made. they had a voice. they didn't have buy-in. So generally, group meetings. All of us choose to do group meetings. Now, there's a caveat. I do a lot of one-on-one calls and emails, and say, the status of this? I think blah, blah blah. But it's not a recurring owning the agenda.
