I have mixed feelings about 1:1. I find it not that useful.

However, some people need a nudge. That original post is a good example of what happens when there's no scheduled 1:1 and both parties assume that the other one will initiate the conversation. Having bi-weekly 1:1 is too much. Once a month is better. Regarding team meetings, 1:1 is not the same. In 1:1 you have an opportunity to speak privately with the manager and discuss things you might be uncomfortable talking about in front of the team.
