Jensen Huang has 60 direct reports and does no 1:1s, so neither should you - right?!?

Product Manager Brian Orlando and Enterprise Business Agility Coach Om Patel examine NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang's claim that he champions "radical transparency" and his policy of no one-on-ones.

Join us as we explore what this means for the rest and listen or watch as we agree that one-on-ones should be employee-driven, focused on growth over status updates, and designed to build the trust that actually gets work done, as well as other topics such as:

  • Jensen Huang's leadership philosophy analyzed
  • Employee-driven vs manager-driven agendas
  • Building trust through private conversations
  • Remote work and relationship building
  • Practical frameworks for better 1:1s

Whether you're a product manager, team lead, or individual contributor; whether you own a snappy leather jacket or not, owning your 1:1 agenda is crucial for career development.

Now accepting all takes (hot or not) in the comments - do you vote for mass transparency or intimate coaching conversations?
