@@JeffSu This is the quickest response on RUclips, wow. I’ve started watching your videos and you are my favourite productivity creator. Wishing you only the best 🌟
Love the spreadsheet tip Jeff! So much more effective to see everything at a glance rather than have every meeting on separate notes. Where have you been all my life??? Need more professional development videos please!! 😀
I think there's a saying that goes something like "a great manager can make any bad job good, and a bad manager can make any great role bad" or something, and it's so true!
Any guesses what my manager would say if she watches this video? 🙃 TIMESTAMPS 00:00 Intro 00:20 Why 1:1's are Important 01:01 How to Prepare Before a 1:1 02:49 What to say During the 1:1 04:42 How to Follow Up after a 1:1 05:45 Summary of 1:1 Best Practices
She would be proud of you :) because you're helping her and other managers' meetings to be more productive, clear and organized. They could add your video for trainings.
I'm not working just a fresher, but by this I learned something useful and now I feels like I'm a step ahead than others and use this while I was in those situation. Thanks Jeff brother for making this.
Though I'm a college student but I still think this will be something extremely important that I'll need in the future, Thanks Jeff for covering this up !!
*1000% yes to the professional development track, please!* Things have gone busier now that we've downsized our Marketing team, so there hasn't been a lot of growth happening. Would love the insight!
A little late here but once again thanks Jeff, I really enjoyed the video! I am in the latter stage of my career (final third), but still find that Jeff does an amazing job of providing the perfect amount of relevant content in a simple, relatable format that has the perfect mix of data and examples to easily apply to real life scenarios for people at all career stages, not to mention his great sense of humor and crisp organized style. Thank you Jeff! I try to watch your videos as often as possible and actually apply your suggestions to my life for better more fulfilling performance and efficiency. I'm sure it is not easy to balance a full time job, keep your videos going, and oh maybe have some part of a fulfilling personal life 😀 but on behalf of all of the people out there who value and respect your work, THANK YOU! I always look forward to watching your videos and do so of a morning when my life is at it's quietest so I can fully absorb the content, take notes and develop courses of action for application to my life. As for the Professional Development comment, YES most definitely I too like the others would love too see a video of yours on that and maybe your suggestions of how to plan, facilitate, and follow-up on those awkward annual meetings like that, which we all have. Other items to consider in a video of that sort might be 1) "how to handle constructive criticism from your manager", turning the negative into a positive re-course of action or b) how to score well on an annual performance review c) how to effectively use the corporate structured performance review process to our advantage throughout the year versus checking the box at the end of the year, etc. A couple of other topics of interest for video suggestions I wondered about is: 1) How to excel in the corporate world as a Consultant/Contingent worker. Realizing this differs across companies based on the vision, goals, and policies but I bet you could do your magic and come up with a concise and entertaining clip on the topic. It's a very important subject matter in the corporate workplace today for people at every career stage and if managed effectively could be quite advantageous to everyone involved on either side (consultant/employee), rather than the "us vs. them" mentality that is so often followed and most big shops around the world. 2) So you got the job! video 🙂 I think that rarely do people stay in 1 job for their entire career anymore. I don't know the stats but I believe I've heard average corporate tenure is 3-5 years. Take that # X the # of working people in the global corporate world and that is a large number of people that often change jobs starting over again and again to apply this information. With that and as a part of that population, we could all use a little Jeff Su magic on how to make the best off it and succeed above the rest (well, the rest of the people who don't know about or watch your videos). I envisioned a 1, 3, 6, 9, 12 month + plan of simple steps or guidelines to suggest for success at each milestone, items to focus on for continued success, things to avoid altogether, and how to exceed leadership's expectations in a rapidly changing world. Or something like that. lol Thank you again Jeff for everything you do. Even though you are amazing at what you do, I'm sure you have days that you question the reward over the amount of work and cost to keep this all going just for the benefit of the fans. Profit aside, you surely must have days where you want to keep your secrets of success to yourself and let the rest of the world figure it out to enjoy more free time for yourself. But on behalf of your fan population a huge thank you is in store and kudos to you for doing what you do. You have no idea the benefit you provide to those of us who look forward to and rely on your work. You are a natural born leader and in addition to improving the lives of your fan base with this content, you will hopefully one day be rewarded for all of the hard work and dedication of blood, sweat, and tears that you've endured over the years to make this happen. Wishing you much success Jeff in everything you do! You deserve it all but most importantly hopefully you will receive more than the expected reward on returns. Apologies for the email length.
Love this video! Just a personal opinion - for some people it might be helpful to add a "Preparation" or "Pre Work" column before the Agenda column to note down what to prep or do before the meeting! For example, send out pre-read, read the product introduction, etc. And therefore the logic of the columns (pre work, agenda, action items) actually follows your before (though slightly different by definition), during, after meeting framework :) but understand that it could be noted separately in other to-do lists as well!
@@JeffSu Hey Jeff, I'm revisiting this at my new job and it's hugely helpful again. I was wondering if you have any wisdom to impart with respect to general career conversations with a manager? I've had a convo with a manager in the past who was a big fan of Radical Candor's guidelines, but you always give straightforward, detailed, and actionable steps for people to follow so was wondering if that was on your backlog of video ideas. Thanks!
Speaking of "timeline stays on track" @ 5:35, I'm relieved this week's global "interruptions" did not derail Jeff's weekly upload of high caliber professional tips
Hi Jack, great videos. As a professional finance person, would you plz share your experience and advices to us regards to business partnering? Thanks hips
Ef Yeah for a professional development track, please! I found this video extremely helpful, now that I started a process on a new and Workplace. But I also would like to know more about the document and the way you take notes, or how to approach it. Thanks for the content.
@Jeff: Great videos and very to-the-point. I have watched many of your videos and I must say they are all fantastic and very high-quality! Can you please also do a video on developing self-confidence (especially at the workplace), being assertive, and being vocal at a workplace please? I think that will benefit a lot of people including me (an introvert). Thank you very much, Jeff!
Jeff is like a close friend whom you go to for all kinds of workplace questions. 😀 You can count on him to give you some of the most useful tips for almost any situation you can think of.
As a first-generation American, the first one to attend college, work in corporate America, and be financially stable in my family, I deeply appreciate this video. You're my only source for this type of advice. Thank you so much!!
The content was solid. I like the rose, thorn and bud method. I also like the Google sheet structure for developmental convos. I would love to content on how to contribute in meetings when you aren't well verse in the topics. How to influence better within the org and across your org.
Jeff, I'm starting my first full-time professional job very soon and I feel like your videos are allowing me to download so much info about how to succeed in the workplace. I studied more technical and theoretical material, so these videos are giving me a ton of ideas about how to wrangle relationships as effectively as I can wrangle data.
Laughed so hard when you said TRAUMA. 😂 Please do a professional development 1:1 structure video! It would be really helpful. Also, would be great if you did a video on how to conduct effective meetings (where multiple stakeholders are present)!
Yes I need more resources and tips as well on how to handle my professional development and be responsible for tracking my own stuff rather than letting other people lead that conversation and tell a different story.
I literally watch your videos to hype me up before I have to be a big boy manager and you help me remember that I know what I’m doing. I love your work ❤
wow🤩，I love this video，thx Jeff ，so useful for me，actually，manage up is as important as doing work after l realize my manager are not what I'm expect✔️✔️✔️
@@JeffSu Hey Jeff, it was my first time to really document my 1:1 session with manager so definitely there was some flaws in my execution. But your video and tips have helped me to structure the topic discussion and I can’t wait refine and master it soon. Love to have you sharing the professional development tips for 1:1 with us too. Thanks again for making such an amazing content !
Have you thought about doing super short videos? Check out Hampton's shorts that he has on the RUclips page for Hybrid Calisthenics. He's genuinely loved for his personality and helpfulness. I think you would be the same!
@@JeffSu it was meant to be! The shorts are where it's at, to grow your audience quick! Then they dive into the longer ones. Keep it up! You've got one of the most valuable channels on YT
Not directly applicable to my situation right now, but I still enjoyed watching! It's great how you always include some little nuggets that apply to any context, e.g., adding relevant attachments to calendar events. I've started doing this (in MS Outlook) and find it saves me quite a bit of time. Extra productivity tip, y'all: if you want to count to six using just one hand, thus saving the other one for multitasking, the Chinese hand gesture system for numbers has got you covered at 0:53. Nope, that was not an extremely laid back rock 'n' roll salute ;)
@@JeffSu just finished the video! Very concise and it's appreciated that you apply what works for you. I'll be graduating university in a year or two, so it's awesome that I get to hear a thing or two about what it takes to be a professional. Thanks man! 👏
@@JeffSu Maybe a scroll-through of your reading list, then some takeaways for each book? Could also do some example note-taking with an excerpt of a book on screen, that would be cool 😀
Thank you Jeff for this great video! Super useful!! Hope to learn more about "managing up & across" from you!!! After using all of your professional tips to successfully get a dream job, now it's time to learn more about how to thrive at the new job from you!
This is amazing - thank you for this video. Could you create more content around managing up, professional habits with a manager, best practices from employee to manager relationships, etc?
This is amazing Jeff, especially for someone like me, who doesn't work with their managers on day-to-day's. I am about to set up a more frequent 1-on-1 cadence with my manager and facilitate the meetings following your tips!
This was so useful, I would love to see more videos like this! One thing I struggle the most is ‘managing up’ you’ve mentioned. And since my 1:1 is only once every six weeks, I’m really trying to get the most out of it 😄
Thanks for the feedback! Glad to hear you found this useful! And wow every 6 weeks, I'd definitely make the most out of those 1:1's for sure! I'd recommend you send pre-reads prior to each one to be honest, if the gap is that long
Thank you for doing this video Jeff!! Should I be proud for suggesting this topic (remember? 🙃). This is my fave video in RUclips now! Great tips. Keep on going.
Hey Jeff, thank you for all of your videos and input. I love the way you present and more importantly the input and added value you give. I get a lot of out of your videos! Thanks for doing this!
Hey! Any chance you ended up creating a video on personal development 1:1? 🤭I have a quarterly meeting coming up, that I would like to be prepared for. Great tips, really appreciate it!!
I just wing my 1 on 1's. I prefer to use my 1 on 1's as a time to get to know my manager better. If we know one another better, it helps build trust and make collaborations smoother. On occasion, I'll give feedback on my observations and vice versa. And I give ideas on how to improve work flow, etc.
Very professinal and good advise. Two feedback from my side, 30 minutes is not enough for such deep topics... Second, if all your advice to work, both parties must respect and value each other. I have seen many people from both parties who do not value the other party.
Social interaction with potentially your whole career on the line? That does sound like trauma 😂 Related to this video, would you say the 1:1 format for new hires/interns will be the same? I’m thinking more industry-related questions would probably be involved 🤔 but hey, potential future video maybe? :P Thanks as always for the great content!
Hi Andrea! Yes so basically I didn't dive into the professional development portion (or the video would have been wayyyyy too long) but that's when you ask big picture industry questions or development questions directed towards your manager :)
Jeff this is awesome content! If you've made a professional development 1:1 video, please let me know, I could really use some direction on that. Keep up the great work!! You are a superstar!
I'm a college student, but I'm definitely using your tips about Rose-Bud-Thorn (oops: Rose-Thorn-Bud😂) and adding the Google sheet to the Google event for recurring meetings. I like how you addressed the "political" significance of having a good 1:1 in the beginning - I would've never thought about it like "managing up". Absolute banger as always, Jeff :D
Super insightful on how to structure manager 1:1, thank you! Please do share a professional development 1:1 structure video as business agenda overrides often career development
I don’t think you would have said “trauma” without some aspect of truth to it, and it was pretty funny, and the laughter helped release trauma. But seriously, I could have used this advice years ago in order the anxiousness around meeting with my managers in the past when working in amcorporate environment.
I'm sorry to hear that Dean! I was mainly joking of course - I've been fortunate enough to have great managers - but I understand not everyone can be as lucky 😅
Hi Jeff! thanks for sharing so many tips!! very helpful~ will it be possible to see another video going over the professional development 1:1 structure? looking very forward to it ;) ooxx

Have you thought about doing super short videos? Check out Hampton's shorts that he has on the RUclips page for Hybrid Calisthenics. He's genuinely loved for his personality and helpfulness. I think you would be the same!
Thanks for introducing me to his channel Quinn! He seems like a genuine and authentic guy! So I'm definitely taking this as a compliment 😁
@@JeffSu it was meant to be! The shorts are where it's at, to grow your audience quick! Then they dive into the longer ones. Keep it up! You've got one of the most valuable channels on YT
Not directly applicable to my situation right now, but I still enjoyed watching! It's great how you always include some little nuggets that apply to any context, e.g., adding relevant attachments to calendar events. I've started doing this (in MS Outlook) and find it saves me quite a bit of time. Extra productivity tip, y'all: if you want to count to six using just one hand, thus saving the other one for multitasking, the Chinese hand gesture system for numbers has got you covered at 0:53. Nope, that was not an extremely laid back rock 'n' roll salute ;)
Thank you for watching the video even if it's not directly applicable to you right now Adriana, I really appreciate it!! And thank you for noticing 😁😁
Seeing how organized all these google apps are, I wish more companies would use them instead of office.
I know right 😛
Do you have a shareable template for your 1:1 agenda?
It's really just 4 columns 😂
I would say the most important thing is the planning of what you are about to get to
Good point! Thanks for your input!
Would love the professional development
That video is on the channel 😁
Jeff's intro: yeah so I've never been relaxed ever 😄
Basically....... 🥲
Haven't watched it yet, but I know this will be awesome and useful (and funny) already!
Hope the video doesn't let you down 😅
@@JeffSu just finished the video! Very concise and it's appreciated that you apply what works for you. I'll be graduating university in a year or two, so it's awesome that I get to hear a thing or two about what it takes to be a professional. Thanks man! 👏
@@jerichodahilan Awesome! Congrats on getting a head start! Trust me the effort you put in now will pay off!
How did you format the document to not expand the cells when you input text?
Using a very manual method.... CMD + ENTER (on a Mac) to input rows manually haha
Jeff, could you make a video about top book recommendations for productivity (or just in general)?
Thanks for the idea Alexandar!! I'll give that some thought 😁, any specific ideas you might have?
@@JeffSu Maybe a scroll-through of your reading list, then some takeaways for each book? Could also do some example note-taking with an excerpt of a book on screen, that would be cool 😀
@@alexanderchen553 got it. I already have a book notes video by the way!
I would love to have a 1:1 with Tim Cookie as well.
Sorry Alex, I just checked with him. He said he's too busy
Yes for the business development meetings video question!
Thanks for the interesting and very helpful content.
Got it Dennis, thanks for letting me know 😁😁
MashaAllah
The background images when you illustrate your points combined with the music give me Christmas vibes 😂
Love it Jeff 😀
Someone REALLY wants Christmas to come earlier 😂
@@JeffSu yeah I also want to lol
Just love your channel 😘
Thank you Aveeraj 😁, happy you came across it!
Thank you Jeff for this great video! Super useful!! Hope to learn more about "managing up & across" from you!!! After using all of your professional tips to successfully get a dream job, now it's time to learn more about how to thrive at the new job from you!
Hahaha that's great to hear Fiona, and congrats of course!! Let's grow together 😁
@@JeffSu Thank you!!!:)
Another amazing video. Keep going mate!
Thank you for sharing so much knowledge for free.
I'm glad you all find this knowledge worth watching!! 😁 Thanks Luís!
5:16 This is super necessary! Grab every idea that's worth of updating and discussing!
Yes! Couldn't agree more Beiyu 😁😁
Hey Jeff, which Ghost theme do you use for your website? I love it!
Hm....I honestly forgot...BUT it's one of the free ones. I'm getting it re-designed right now though!
@@JeffSu Ah okay. Thanks for replying though and good luck with the redesign!
This is amazing - thank you for this video. Could you create more content around managing up, professional habits with a manager, best practices from employee to manager relationships, etc?
Have you checked out my "What makes a great manager' video yet Lauren?
@@JeffSu going to watch that right now!! Thanks for the suggestion!
@@laurenturori6300 No problem, let me know what you think!
Loved the Studio and Video Environment.
Thank you Aniket 😁
thank you so much for these pro tips
You're very welcome Peter 😁
This is amazing Jeff, especially for someone like me, who doesn't work with their managers on day-to-day's. I am about to set up a more frequent 1-on-1 cadence with my manager and facilitate the meetings following your tips!
Nice Alfred! Let me know how it goes 😁😁
Love that sort of videos. So clean editing, reminds me alot of Ali Abdaal but with a more business look. Keep going!
Thank you Mario! And yes Ali inspired me to start creating useful videos 😁
Thank you very much.
You're very welcome 😁
This was so useful, I would love to see more videos like this! One thing I struggle the most is ‘managing up’ you’ve mentioned. And since my 1:1 is only once every six weeks, I’m really trying to get the most out of it 😄
Thanks for the feedback! Glad to hear you found this useful! And wow every 6 weeks, I'd definitely make the most out of those 1:1's for sure! I'd recommend you send pre-reads prior to each one to be honest, if the gap is that long
Thank you for doing this video Jeff!! Should I be proud for suggesting this topic (remember? 🙃). This is my fave video in RUclips now! Great tips. Keep on going.
Yes I do remember you suggesting this topic, sorry it took so long 😅. Thanks for sticking around for so long!!
Hey Jeff, thank you for all of your videos and input. I love the way you present and more importantly the input and added value you give. I get a lot of out of your videos! Thanks for doing this!
Happy to hear that Halit 😁😁, thank you
Thanks Jeff, this was very helpful and I'm glad to take your advice and stay proactive on this one
Let me know how it goes 😁
Hey! Any chance you ended up creating a video on personal development 1:1? 🤭I have a quarterly meeting coming up, that I would like to be prepared for. Great tips, really appreciate it!!
Hi Kaitlen! Not yet unfortunately! Best of luck with your quarterly meeting!
I just wing my 1 on 1's. I prefer to use my 1 on 1's as a time to get to know my manager better. If we know one another better, it helps build trust and make collaborations smoother.
On occasion, I'll give feedback on my observations and vice versa. And I give ideas on how to improve work flow, etc.
That's a great point of view! A lot of colleagues I know have a more relaxed catch up with their managers!
Very professinal and good advise. Two feedback from my side, 30 minutes is not enough for such deep topics... Second, if all your advice to work, both parties must respect and value each other. I have seen many people from both parties who do not value the other party.
Thanks for your input!!
Social interaction with potentially your whole career on the line? That does sound like trauma 😂
Related to this video, would you say the 1:1 format for new hires/interns will be the same? I’m thinking more industry-related questions would probably be involved 🤔 but hey, potential future video maybe? :P
Thanks as always for the great content!
Hi Andrea! Yes so basically I didn't dive into the professional development portion (or the video would have been wayyyyy too long) but that's when you ask big picture industry questions or development questions directed towards your manager :)
Ah I thought so! Thanks Jeff and looking forward to future developmental videos :)
Jeff this is awesome content! If you've made a professional development 1:1 video, please let me know, I could really use some direction on that. Keep up the great work!! You are a superstar!
That video will be out towards the end of the year 😁
I'm a college student, but I'm definitely using your tips about Rose-Bud-Thorn (oops: Rose-Thorn-Bud😂) and adding the Google sheet to the Google event for recurring meetings. I like how you addressed the "political" significance of having a good 1:1 in the beginning - I would've never thought about it like "managing up". Absolute banger as always, Jeff :D
That's awesome to hear Leia! Yes the Rose Thorn Bud structure can apply to a variety of situations if you think about it, thanks for the input!! 😁😁
Super insightful on how to structure manager 1:1, thank you! Please do share a professional development 1:1 structure video as business agenda overrides often career development
Will do! Yes that's often true Margaret!
Great tips, Jeff
Thank you Deboshree 😁
Jeff how do I make things bold or italics on LinkedIn?
I don’t think you would have said “trauma” without some aspect of truth to it, and it was pretty funny, and the laughter helped release trauma. But seriously, I could have used this advice years ago in order the anxiousness around meeting with my managers in the past when working in amcorporate environment.
I'm sorry to hear that Dean! I was mainly joking of course - I've been fortunate enough to have great managers - but I understand not everyone can be as lucky 😅
Hi Jeff! thanks for sharing so many tips!! very helpful~ will it be possible to see another video going over the professional development 1:1 structure? looking very forward to it ;) ooxx
Thanks for letting me know Ave! That video is in the pipeline 😁
Thanks
You're welcome 😁
6:04 Can’t wait to apply this during 1:1 meetings! Thanks a lot, Jeff!
Let me know how it goes! 😁
I've rewatched this a couple of times and always find it refreshing! Would love a video on 1:1 specifically for professional development!
Thanks Louis! Ah yes...I need to get to that video...
