One-on-ones aren’t just check-ins—they’re one of the few moments you get your manager’s full attention.
In this mini-sode of Work in Progress, Courtney Jennings-Hope and Larone break down how to use that time to build trust, communicate clearly, and shape your reputation at work.
They explore why these meetings can feel uncomfortable, how psychological safety plays a role, and what to do when promotion paths feel vague or biased.
Whether you’re aiming for clarity, recognition, or career growth, this episode will help you turn one-on-ones into your most valuable tool for navigating corporate life.
