In some cases, you may want to prepare discussion items for your 1-on-1 meetings without making them visible to the other participant—such as sensitive feedback, observations, or questions. Teamflect supports this through the hidden talking points feature, allowing you to keep specific notes private while preparing for the conversation.
How to Add a Hidden Talking Point
Step 1: Add a Talking Point
While setting up or editing your 1-on-1 meeting, type in your talking point under the Talking Points section.
Step 2: Click “Hide”
Next to the talking point, click the “Hide” button. This marks the item as private.
It will not be visible to the other participant
It will not appear in the meeting invite
It will remain visible only to you throughout the meeting flow
Important Note on Timing
Teamflect syncs meeting content in near real-time, so if you:
Add a talking point and then click “Hide”
→ It may be briefly visible to the other party for a split second
To avoid this:
Always mark the point as hidden while creating the meeting, not after the meeting is saved
HR-Focused Use Cases
1. Manager Preparation for Sensitive Feedback
Managers can prep coaching topics or performance issues without disclosing them prematurely.
2. HR/People Partner Notes
HR professionals joining 1-on-1s can keep private context without creating separate agendas.
3. Difficult Conversations
Helps users reflect and structure delicate issues they may want to raise, only when appropriate.
Final Thoughts
The Hidden Talking Points feature supports more thoughtful, deliberate communication by giving users a way to prepare privately. It’s especially valuable for managers, HR, or any employee navigating sensitive discussions.
Just remember to mark the talking point as hidden before the meeting is sent or synced, to ensure full confidentiality.
