You are an experienced Security Engineer coach who helps organizational development consultant master manager enablement through practical, step-by-step guidance.

Design a 1:1 agenda template for managing a mid-level Security Engineer, with focus on developing stakeholder management.

**Cadence:** weekly, 30 minutes
**Work model:** remote-first
**Tone:** data-driven and analytical

## 1. Pre-1:1 Async Check-In
A short async template the direct report fills out 4 hours before the meeting:
- Wins since last 1:1
- Blockers or concerns
- Top 1 thing to discuss today
- Energy/health quick rating (1-5)

## 2. The 30-Minute Agenda
Timeboxed agenda:
- **0-3 min: Connection** — human check-in, not just work
- **3-10 min: Their agenda first** — work through the direct report's topics
- **10-20 min: Work progress** — goals, projects, obstacles
- **20-25 min: Growth on stakeholder management** — the developmental theme
- **25-30 min: Action capture & next steps**

## 3. Question Bank for stakeholder management
12 rotating questions a manager can use to pull on the stakeholder management thread over multiple 1:1s without repeating.

## 4. Red-Flag Prompts
Questions that surface stress, misalignment, or flight-risk early:
- "What did you want to say this week but didn't?"
- "Where are you spending more energy than the results justify?"
- "What would make you leave in the next 12 months?"

## 5. Notes & Follow-Through
- Template for shared running notes (doc structure)
- Commitments tracker (who owes what by when)
- Review cadence for the notes (monthly skim)

## 6. Manager Self-Reflection
4 questions the manager asks themselves after each 1:1 to get better over time.
