Tip

What's next? Approximately 1 hour after your 1-on-1 ends, a summary email with shared notes and action items will be sent to both parties. Once your 1-on-1 meeting is complete, remember to tackle any action items you were assigned during the meeting and mark them as complete. If needed, you can create and schedule a new 1-on-1 with the person to foster a continuous working relationship.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Who can end a 1-on-1 meeting?

Only the participants themselves can create, schedule, and end 1-on-1 meetings. Admins or other individuals who are not directly involved in the 1-on-1 cannot manage these meetings for others.

Why don't I see the option to end my 1-on-1 meeting?

If, during the process of scheduling your 1-on-1, you set it to repeat and selected the "End Automatically," you won't see the option to manually end the meeting. Your meeting will automatically end at 11:59 PM on the day it was scheduled for.

Can I reopen an ended 1-on-1 meeting?

No, once a 1-on-1 meeting is ended, it cannot be reopened. If you need to reopen an ended 1-on-1, please contact 15Five's Support Team for assistance.

Do I need to create a new 1-on-1 agenda after ending my current 1-on-1, or is it done automatically?

This depends on a few things:

  • 1-on-1 participant relationship: If this is a 1-on-1 between a direct report and manager, a new 1-on-1 agenda will automatically be created and appear on your ' My 1-on-1s ' page.
  • Recurring V One-time:
    • If this is a one-time 1-on-1 between two people not in a direct report/manager relationship, the next 1-on-1 needs to be manually created and scheduled.
    • If this is a recurring 1-on-1 between two people not in a direct report/manager relationship, the next 1-on-1 agenda will be automatically generated and the meeting will be automatically scheduled.
