March 2024 Product Recap

April 15, 2024

The Candor Feed of a user called Neisha. On the sidebar on the left one can read ‘Happy Wednesday, Neisha!’, see the user’s Team Space and Active Missions. On the main section, the actual Feed shows 2 sections: 'For you' with recommendations of missions to perform and 'What’s on your team' showing the latest happenings on the user’s Team Space.

March was an exciting month for the Candor team. We unveiled the new Candor and the feature set we’ve been quietly building for our community the last few months.

Your one-stop-shop for teammate connection

Our new feed brings all of your teammates’ Candor activity to one place. See new shoutouts, check-ins, and polls from your personalized feed. Don’t forget to add a reaction or comment to show your teammates some love!

Your new feedback routine is here: lightweight, bi-directional Feedback on Candor

Annual reviews are out, continuous feedback is in! Our feedback mission lets you pair with a teammate to do bi-directional feedback on a cadence that feels right to you. Pair up monthly, quarterly, or every 6 months—whatever is right for you.

Feedback doesn’t need to be rigid with a ton of overhead. Candor gives you prompts to make feedback lightweight and focused on growth.

I’d love to see you go further with a couple of projects in the next quarter'; and the other shows my user’s feedback for Kelsey: 'How can Kelsey improve? Share opportunities of growth for her.' followed by my user’s response 'You’ve gotten better at exercising patience on projects by checking in more frequently.'

1-on-1s mission helps you build agendas and connection 📆

Our new 1-on-1 mission is the perfect way to start leveling up your 1-on-1 meetings. Build a collaborative agenda with your teammate and use our prompt library when you aren’t quite sure what to talk about. Awkward and useless 1-on-1 meetings never again!
