1-1 Planner Starter Kit (Planner + Box Set)

Great tool so far. It is the right level of depth and the right queues for a good 1:1 while not wasting space on superfluous activities. It is especially helpful for capturing "oh I need to talk to her about this" in between meetings.

Book feels like good quality and easy to carry around.
I bought one for each of my team members to use for their 1:1s too.

I adapted mine so one book supports multiple direct reports by color coding the corner of the page to each person. Would like them to be a little thicker / more pages.

Full of great ideas.

I purchased the Unstuck notebook for 1:1 and the 1:1 deck and after my first use can see how this is going to be a game changer. I used the notebook to track the 1:1 and now have a way to follow up easily and know what I need to do. The questions I asked from the deck were well received and sparked great conversation. My colleague is going to order these as well!

The planner came into action straight away combined with the questions and prompts taken from the 1:1 box. The layout was clear and helped guide through each meeting. A hidden gem in the planner is the front section before the 1:1 sections begin. It has a great guide on how to develop productive 1:1s and structure meetings. For quick reflection and reminders before you start your next 1:1, it’s great to make sure you’ve got a good plan that can react in the moment. The rating section on the pages although a simple concept, feels to me like they are going to be able to really help gauge opinions and feelings over time of the team, and whether it’s reaction to workload or more personal matters. It’s only been a short time of using so far, but when aharing my experience with other line managers of its structure and ideas, they have all commented on how useful they too would find it. Id recommend it for those how need a helping hand or a boost in confidence to get better results from 1:1s and employee development.

A really helpful tool for me to see my team’s progress, focus actively on their objectives and career plans and keep all of their 1:1s organised and structured.

Quality planner, that is well thought out for one on ones.

This planner has been a brilliant addition. It helps my team and me stay on track before, during, and after our one-on-ones, ensuring that commitments are kept. It's such a great investment!

High quality book. Reasonable instructions inside. Might need a system to organize each employee to easily refer back to notes from them rather than just timeline ordering of meetings.

This notebook has a perfectly structured format for driving high quality one-on-ones. The notebook also is well made and high quality materials and design

These 1:1 planner cards have been a game-changer for our team development. The structured approach transformed our one-on-ones from vague check-ins into meaningful conversations that quickly identified gaps we didn’t even know existed.

## Key Results

Since implementing them, we’ve seen dramatic improvements in team engagement—our people are more proactive, invested in their growth, and collaborative in problem-solving.

Most importantly, these cards don’t just surface issues—they guide us toward concrete action steps. We’ve created targeted development plans and implemented changes that led to tangible wins across multiple projects.

Bottom Line

The 1:1 planner cards transformed our team culture from reactive to proactive, with stronger relationships, clearer communication, and measurably better performance outcomes. They’ve become an indispensable part of our management toolkit.

**Highly recommended for any leader serious about developing their team and driving real results.**
