Integrating Develop insights doesn’t mean every 1:1 needs a deep dive into the report. Instead, weave the data into natural moments of reflection, feedback, and planning.
Ways to Integrate Develop into Your Conversations
Use Spotlights to Reflect on Role Fit
“You’ve got Influence and Decision Making in your Least Effort list - do you feel like your current work gives you chances to use those strengths?”Use Scores to Normalize Struggles
“Adaptability takes more effort for you - that might explain why the recent org changes felt especially draining. How can I support you through that?”Connect Development to Business Needs
“We’ll need strong Organization and Planning on this project. That’s an area where you’ve shown a lot of natural strength - would you want to take the lead?”Check in on Action Items
If your direct report has created goals in the platform, use 1:1s to review progress, celebrate wins, or revise next steps.
Keep it Light and Frequent
You don’t have to make every conversation about results. Small, regular references can help make development feel continuous and integrated - not a one-off event.
