Schedule a Non Calendar-Integrated Meeting
If you do not have your calendar integrated, you can create a meeting directly in Leadr. If your calendar is integrated, please make all creations and edits in your external calendar. View our Create a Meeting article to schedule meetings if your calendar is integrated.
Creating a Meeting in Leadr
Click on the Meetings tab on the left-hand side of Leadr
Then select "+ New Meeting" at the top right corner of the page.
- Now you will see three types of Meetings to choose from:
- 1:1 Meeting: A recurring meeting between yourself and one other Leadr user.
- One-time 1:1 Meeting: A single instance meeting between yourself and one other Leadr user.
- Team Meeting: A meeting between 2+ staff that can reoccur or be scheduled as one-time.
4. After selecting the appropriate Meeting type, you can begin to schedule your Meeting!
For a 1:1 Meeting
At Leadr, we believe the strongest driver of growth, engagement, and productivity is the relationship between a manager and their employee. That’s why 1:1 meetings are so important—they may be the only time each week when your team member has your full, undivided attention.
To schedule a 1:1:
- Select a 1:1 Meeting to begin scheduling a recurring Meeting between you and your teammate.
- First, add the other participant to your 1:1
- You can filter by Your Direct Reports, Leaders, Peers, Skip Level, and Others
- Upon adding your participant, the 1:1 Meeting will auto-populate a Title.
- Here is a quick video selecting individuals for a reoccurring 1:1 Meeting
3. Next, you can set a Date, Time, Frequency, and Repeating Days
- Click into the Start Date field to add the first date you will be meeting and the time frame of this meeting
You can expand each employee category
Next you will select the Frequency of this meeting or how often you will meet with this user. The frequency will reflect what your external calendar supports (i.e. Outlook / Google Calendar). For example, if you Sync with Diane for 15 minutes every morning, you would schedule the cadence with Repeats on MTWTF.
Lastly, you should be ready to select Create Meeting for your new Reoccurring 1:1 Meeting at the very bottom of your Create Meeting page.
For a One-Time 1:1 Meeting
- After selecting a One-time Meeting, you will be all set to add your details for the meeting!
- First, you will select the participant you want to set this meeting up with
Upon adding your participant, the One-Time 1:1 Meeting will auto-populate a Title. Pretty cool, right?
- Next, click into the Start Date field to add the first date you will be meeting and the time frame of this meeting.
- Lastly, finalize your meetings by clicking Create Meeting
This meeting will fall into the Timeline between you and the other participant. So, any 1:1 you have with this participant, you will see any One-time meetings that have happened within that Meeting Timeline as well!
For a Team Meeting
At Leadr, we believe effective teamwork drives alignment, collaboration, and results. Team meetings create the space for everyone to connect, share progress, and move forward together with clarity and purpose.
- After selecting to set up a Team Meeting, add a Title for your meeting. Unlike the 1:1s above, Team Meetings will not auto-populate a Title.
- Next, click into the Start Date field to add the first date and time you will be meeting
- Next, choose the frequency for this meeting to occur. Need the meeting to happen only once? Great! Select One Time from the frequency drop down.
- With all the details added, you can now begin selecting your Participants. You can filter by downline, direct reports, recent, or search by typing in the search field. Once the user is located, select their icon to add them to a meeting. Accidentally added in the wrong Member? Use the Red X on the right of their icon to remove the user from the Team Meeting.
Note you may choose only one participant and add more later. It will not automatically turn into a 1:1 meeting.
Link a Team
When scheduling a meeting through Leadr, users can link to a Team that they are a part of. Follow the above steps, then use the filter to select a corresponding team.
You can also create a Team Meeting directly from the Team Hub section of Leadr.
If there is a Team Meeting which involves different departments (like a volunteer group or an event planning team) you can set the meeting, go to the Teams tab and click on "Create team from participants."
Once linked, corresponding Team goals will be displayed within the Team meeting similarly to the one-to-one.
