Scheduling and managing 1:1 meetings with your team members

Modified on Mon, 8 Jan at 12:20 PM

1:1 meetings with a reporting manager are crucial for employee performance as they facilitate open and direct communication. These meetings provide employees with an opportunity to discuss their progress, challenges, and goals with their manager. Regular check-ins enable managers to offer feedback, support, and guidance, leading to improved performance and development. Additionally, they foster trust and engagement between the employee and manager, enhancing the overall work relationship.


In this article, we will discuss all the features available in this section. Please note that not all features may be visible to you as their visibility depends on your organization's policies.


With Keka, managing and scheduling meetings with your team members becomes effortless. To do this, navigate to the My Team section of the portal and access the Performance section. From there, open the 1:1 Meetings Tab.


The 1:1 Meetings tab may be divided into sections for Direct Reports and Indirect Reports. All these sections allow you to view employees reporting to you in any manner and efficiently schedule and manage the 1:1 meetings.



Certain sections, such as Indirect Reports, will only be visible to you if the corresponding role has been assigned to you.



Scheduling a 1:1 Meeting
