About this course
A recurring meeting can fill the calendar without giving an employee much support. Shelley Osborne’s course separates the purposes that often get mixed together in a one-on-one: moving current work forward, discussing development and exchanging feedback. That distinction gives managers a clearer reason for each conversation.
The syllabus combines meeting logistics with coaching techniques. It includes agendas and records, active listening, career discussions and the situation–behavior–impact feedback framework. Activities ask learners to prepare meetings and practice feedback rather than stop at general advice about communication.

Skills you’ll gain
- Planning collaborative meeting agendas
- Listening and asking open questions
- Structuring career conversations
- Giving specific behavior-based feedback
This course is intended for people who manage others or are about to take that responsibility. The GLO model organizes different meeting purposes, while the career-development material introduces GROW as a way to discuss goals. Watch those explanations before adapting the worksheets to your team.
For a practical study sequence, prepare one agenda after the planning section and revisit it after the listening lessons. Then decide whether development and feedback need their own space. This keeps the course useful without assuming every manager needs the same meeting frequency or the same template.
Frequently asked questions
Who will get the most from these lessons?
The course asks you to be a people manager or to be moving into that role. Its examples and activities focus on conversations with direct reports.
Is it only about weekly progress updates?
No. The syllabus distinguishes work check-ins from career development and feedback, which need different questions and preparation.
Does 77 minutes include completing the activities?
That is the listed course duration. Preparing your own agenda and practicing a feedback conversation require additional time.
