"The one-on-one is, in fact, the subordinate's meeting, with its agenda and tone set by him. The supervisor's role is one of consultant—and of asking questions.""1:1 实质上是下属的会,议程和基调由他设定。主管的角色是顾问——提问的人。"— Andy Grove,《High Output Management》Ch.4

PRINCIPLE 03
让下属说真话的提问:从"挺好的"到"其实……"
Questions That Surface The Truth
提问教练心理安全感
一句话原则
"How's it going?" 这个问题已经废掉了。换成具体、低风险、带方向的问题——并准备好沉默 8 秒。
名家原话
"To make Radical Candor work, you have to solicit it before you can dish it out. If they tell you they are 'fine,' you have to push harder.""要让坦诚有效,你得先主动征求它,再去给出它。如果他们说'挺好的',你必须再推一步。"— Kim Scott,《Radical Candor》
场景示范:替换你的提问库
情境:下属每次 1:1 都说"挺好的,没什么特别的",你不知道他到底好不好。
✗ 失败问句(信号噪音比太低)
"How are things?" → "Good."
"Anything I should know?" → "Not really."
"Any blockers?" → "No, all good."
"How can I help?" → "I'm fine, thanks."

PRINCIPLE 04
识别 1:1 已经退化成"状态会"——并修好它
Diagnose & Repair The Status-Update Trap
"If your 1:1s feel like status updates, you're doing them wrong. Status belongs in writing. The 1:1 is for what you can't put in a doc.""如果你的 1:1 感觉像状态汇报,那你就做错了。状态属于书面。1:1 留给那些写不进文档的东西。"— Camille Fournier,《The Manager's Path》
