If your reports run teams, ask them to lead team meetings on Tuesdays and stack their 1: 1s on Mondays. If their reports run teams, then stagger this arrangement by another day!
Why should you do this?
Individual contributors discuss priorities and challenges with their managers 1: 1 on Monday. Any roadblocks that can’t be resolved 1: 1 or asynchronously can be tackled by specific departments on Tuesday or — if necessary — by leadership on Wednesday.
