My one on one conversations with my boss became significantly more productive when we started just going and grabbing a cup of coffee for them.
It's a more social setting, which puts you on footing to actually have a conversation.
The previous six years to that, my boss would ask the same canned questions and I would give the same canned answers. The whole process would take about three minutes and nothing would be gained by anyone.

- benhurmarcel 7y agoSounds like they don't trust you. It's the same with my manager. People don't tell him what they really think, because by experience we know it's not going to have a positive impact, and might negatively impact our raises.
