SOLUTION:

How's It Going?

PURPOSE: Touch base with your team members each week to get an update on a personal situation, their family members, or a hobby they enjoy outside of work. 

Time: < 30 Minutes

STEP 1: Record your team members’ names on the How’s It Going? Worksheet.

STEP 2: Each time you check in with a team member to find out about their family members, get an update on a personal situation, or learn about a personal hobby, place a check mark next to the person’s name.

See if you can place a check mark next to each team member’s name at least once a week.

STEP 3: At the end of each month, tally the number of times you checked in with each team member. When reviewing the summary, think about the following:

  1. Are there team members who you discuss their personal life with more than others?
  2. Do you see any patterns regarding who receives the most attention? (e.g., high performers vs. low performers, team members like you, etc.)
  3. With which team members should you increase the amount of time you discuss their personal situation?
