How to Set a Duration for Talking Points in Teamflect Meetings

Allocating time to each agenda item helps ensure that meetings stay focused, balanced, and on schedule. With Teamflect, you can now set durations per talking point, making your meetings more structured and outcome-driven — especially useful in recurring or time-boxed 1-on-1s.

This will activate the duration setting feature for all users.

Log in to your Teamflect account and go to the Meetings module.

Create or open a meeting, then click "Add Talking Point". Enter your discussion topic.

After adding the talking point, a time field will appear. Enter the desired duration (in minutes).

Repeat this for each talking point to build a fully time-managed agenda.

As you run the meeting, each talking point will display its allocated duration. This helps participants stay on track and move through the agenda efficiently.

You can adjust durations before the meeting if priorities shift.
