A 1x1 ( pronounced as One-on-One ) meeting with your manager is a recurring, private discussion between an employee and their manager.

The aim of this meeting is to discuss any concerns or challenges and chart a path for career progression. Having mutual respect and a strong working relationship with your manager is always desirable.

What is your role?

The Product Manager needs to clearly communicate with their manager during this meeting. A tip is to share a document of all your achievements and successful projects with your manager that will be useful during bonus and promotion discussions. Your document should have the following:

• Detailed Accomplishments

• Contributions to Company Growth

• Professional Development

• Career Aspirations
