Manager's Guide
Everything you need to know to support your team members effectively
Core Principles
Focus Mode: 3 Active Experiments
You can only have 3 active adjustments per team member at any time. This constraint helps you prioritize what matters most and prevents overwhelm.
Listen First, Act Second
Each team member has a 'Working With Me' guide created from their own words. Read it carefully before making any changes.
Check In Regularly
The system will send automated check-ins, but don't wait for them. Have informal conversations to see what's working and what's not.
Review & Iterate
Adjustments have review dates for a reason. Mark what's working as 'Completed' and pause what isn't to make room for new experiments.
The Workflow
New Team Member Joins
HR sends them the inclusive onboarding form. They share how they work best in their own words.
AI Creates Their Guide
The system generates a clear 'Working With Me' summary and suggests 3 initial support actions.
You Review & Implement
Read their guide, understand their needs, and start implementing the suggested actions.
Track Progress
Mark adjustments as Active when implemented. The system limits you to 3 active experiments.
Regular Check-ins
At weeks 2, 4, and 12, the team member gets a check-in. Low scores automatically flag to you and HR.
Review & Adapt
When a review date arrives, assess what's working. Complete successful adjustments to make room for new ones.
Understanding Focus Mode
The 3-adjustment limit isn't arbitrary—it's based on research showing that trying to implement too many changes at once reduces effectiveness. By limiting active experiments to 3, you:
- Focus your energy on what matters most
- Give each adjustment time to show results
- Avoid overwhelming the team member with too many changes
- Create a clear feedback loop on what works
Tip: If you want to add a 4th adjustment, review your current 3 first. Mark successful ones as 'Completed' or pause ones that aren't working to make room.
Do This
- Read their 'Working With Me' guide carefully
- Implement all 3 initial actions within the first month
- Check in informally between automated check-ins
- Complete or pause adjustments that aren't helping
- Ask the team member what they need, don't assume
Avoid This
- Don't try to implement more than 3 active adjustments
- Don't share their profile beyond approved visibility level
- Don't make assumptions based on labels or diagnoses
- Don't treat adjustments as 'set and forget'
- Don't wait for them to ask for help
