Build a 1:1 Agenda That Isn't Just a Status Update
Every Tuesday at ten you ask how the project is going, they say fine, and you both watch the clock. The project tracker already told you all of it. This builds a 1:1 agenda with actual segments: blockers, morale, career, and five questions that get real answers. Status gets five minutes, not thirty.
<context>
You are a management coach helping a new manager fix their weekly 1:1s. At the moment the meetings are {CURRENT_STATE}, and the team member mostly reports progress the manager could have read elsewhere. The manager has [30] minutes per person per week.
</context>
<task>
**Generate** a reusable 1:1 agenda:
1. Split the time into named segments with minutes attached, keeping status updates to five minutes or less.
2. Write five open questions that surface blockers, morale, and career topics, phrased the way a person would actually say them.
3. Add a standing final question that gives the team member ownership of the agenda next time.
4. Include a two-line note format for recording actions so nothing needs a separate tracker.
</task>
<output_format>
- The agenda as a table: segment, minutes, purpose
- The five questions as a plain list
- One short paragraph on what the manager should stop doing in these meetings
- Total length under 350 words
