Why Use 1:1s?

What are 1:1s?

The 1:1's tool allows managers and employees to collaborate on a shared agenda for their meetings. Employees can also create a 1:1 relationship with their colleagues.

The first step to having a productive meeting is creating an agenda. With the 1:1's tool, employees can connect their Google or Outlook calendars to 1:1s so their meetings align with their calendar events, even if the time changes. 

Note: Aside from the individuals in the 1:1 relationship, the 1:1 content will only be visible to admins and those granted a custom role 1:1s permission.

Why use 1:1s?

Agendas are created as soon as the previous meeting ends. Once an agenda exists, both participants can add talking points, comments, and action items. 

Lattice will send both employees a notification 2 hours before the meeting with the agenda so they can come better prepared for the meeting. Once the meeting starts, both employees can add notes to track what was discussed. 

Participants can use the Lattice mobile app to conduct their 1:1. Learn more in Navigate 1:1s Using the Mobile App.
