Tip
We recommend only adding up to five questions to individual Check-ins so Check-ins don't get too long. 15Five's name is derived from the idea that Check-ins should take around 15 minutes for employees to fill out, and managers should take around five minutes to review an employee's Check-in. You can see a list of all questions that appear or will appear on a person's Check-in for a specific reporting period using question preview.
