The work you’re still doing

Your report has more to say than last week’s notes

Granola’s briefs draw on previous meetings. Before a 1:1, you also need your report’s latest concerns and the goals you’re helping them work toward. Mora collects that input and brings it into the agenda.

Priya’s check-in

What’s on your mind for our next 1:1?

“Can we talk about priorities for the launch?”

Answered by link · No account needed

Start before the call

Your report’s pre-meeting check-in gives you their side of the conversation. Mora uses those answers alongside your notes and open goals when suggesting the agenda.

Priya’s goal

Make room to lead the launch

Agree on priorities
Review support coverage

Work with goals that outlast a meeting

Keep a goal against the person, update its status, and check off its steps. Open goals also give Mora context for future agenda suggestions.

Your private notes

Ask how she’s feeling about the new responsibilities.

Your direct reports can’t see these

Keep recording out of the conversation

Mora doesn’t listen to your calls or generate a transcript. You decide what to write in your private notes, and Mora works from the record you choose to keep.
