The Conversation Compass
The Conversation Compass provides a framework of key conversational points, by which we can navigate through individual experiences, select the focus of interactions and enable a tailored personal approach. The individual experiences can include, but may not be limited to:

Induction & Onboarding – as new members of staff join the team the Conversation Compass can be used to support establishing and maintaining strong working relationships
Reboarding - as a result of a restructure or People Change
Reviewing performance and continuous improvement – a performance appraisal was once an activity undertaken once a year, the Conversation Compass facilitates the opportunity to focus conversations at certain points in the year, for example highlighting areas such as ‘Objectives’, ‘Strategy’, ‘Development’ whilst enabling these topics to remain live and easily available to pick up in ongoing conversations
Working differently – supporting conversations during this period of working differently.
Further information on the Conversation Compass can be found here.
