Anecdotal (but then again so is the whole discussion) ...I recently started a job with a company that does regular 1:1's and wow. Been in this industry for 20+ years and I never knew how badly I needed this. Theoretically, obviously, managers can have "open door" policies where you can talk to them any time about any thing. Theoretically, this would suffice. In reality, I have always generally felt awful about bothering managers and taking up their time. Having dedicated 1:1 time is an absolute gamechanger.
