Meaningful Monthly 1:1s

Meaningful Monthly 1:1s is a simple, supportive framework to help school leaders build trust, connection, and open communication with every staff member. This guide includes practical tips, ready-made agendas, and question banks that make check-ins feel purposeful rather than overwhelming. With just 15 minutes a month, leaders can strengthen relationships, solve problems sooner, and create a culture where every teacher feels seen and valued.
