We've all heard about (and rolled our eyes at) the out-of-touch software engineering manager:

When I wrote https://t.co/8nDvLRLy6s, I got a lot of comments like "I've done >1k useless 1:1s, so there's no way 1:1s can be consistently great."

Hilarious self-own aside, I realized I didn't give a good playbook for *how* to do good 1:1s. Here's mine (for folks on both sides):

Where do #dotnet ppl hunt for jobs? I’ve got a C# job to post, and wanting to get it in front of a lot o eyeballs.

[Nicole Beckwith @NicoleBeckwith]

Sunday question: What is something a great manager you have had did or does that makes you really respect them? I’m looking for acts not traits. (Ex. Holds 1:1s with me every week)
