Explaining recommended talking points in 1:1s and how managers can use them
What are recommended talking points?
Recommended talking points are conversation starters for managers to add to their 1:1 meetings with their direct reports. The recommendations are drawn from a list of questions that are proven to drive employee <> manager alignment and improve employee engagement.
Note: Recommended talking points for managers can only be used by managers in 1:1 relationships with their direct reports. Lattice provides direct reports with their own list of recommended talking points, which you can view here.
