For People Leaders

Develop managers with evidence, not hallway guesses.

Cadence gives people leaders a live view of 1:1 cadence, recognition, goals, survey signal and ER context today. 9-box talent calibration, manager taxonomy, advanced calibration movement, and predictive retention are shown as preview or roadmap so your team can evaluate the roadmap honestly.

You see the signal. You still make the call.

The manager taxonomy

Three preview taxonomy patterns help focus manager coaching.

System-builder

Preview taxonomy pattern: uses structured 1:1s, keeps recognition visible, and follows up on performance gaps before they drift.

Task-manager

Preview taxonomy pattern: work is tracked, but coaching and development signals need L2 follow-up before they become a habit.

Quiet decayer

Preview taxonomy pattern: missed 1:1s, thin recognition, and repeated friction create a coaching prompt for the senior leader.

Preview note: Cadence is testing taxonomy language against observed behavior from 1:1 cadence, recognition ratios, ER context, and coaching follow-up. Human leaders decide what action to take.

What you get

The visibility to develop your managers, not just manage their output.

Preview: Manager Taxonomy

See the coaching patterns you want to develop next.

The taxonomy model is preview-labeled: it organizes observed 1:1 cadence, recognition, and follow-up signals so L2s can coach managers with evidence, not anecdotes.

Live Today: Culture Scorecard Views

Manager health conversations start from current signals.

Live manager scorecard and org-health heatmap views connect current 1:1, recognition, goals, survey, and ER-context signals. Predictive scoring remains roadmap-labeled.

Coming Q3: 9-Box Talent Calibration

Prepare for human-reviewed calibration without waiting for the annual cycle.

Coming Q3: 9-box talent calibration is planned for Professional and Enterprise workspaces. KVD, advanced movement analytics, gap automation, predictive retention, and intervention workflows remain roadmap-labeled.

1:1 Audit Visibility

See if the 1:1s you've mandated are actually happening — and what quality looks like.

Compliance dashboard across all your direct reports' teams. Plus quality signals: are conversations covering coaching, accountability, and development — or just status updates?

“How do I know this actually changes manager behavior?”

Cadence doesn't just measure. It prompts. After every 1:1, managers receive private coaching on how they showed up — were they directive or collaborative? Did they coach or just check in? Did they recognize something this week? Behavior changes because the system makes the right action the default action — not because someone is watching.
