Career Hub meetings give you a structured format for discussing role clarity, energizing work, strengths, and career vision with each direct report. Running these meetings in sequence produces a shared understanding of the employee's current role and growth direction.
Before You Begin
- Career Hub must be enabled for your organization by an account administrator.
- Job responsibilities, projects, and tasks must be added to the direct report's Role Clarity tab before the first meeting. See Add job responsibilities and projects to a direct report's Career Hub.
- Your direct report must have filled out their Career Hub and shared results with you before you can view their responses.
Meeting 1: Role Clarity — Defining the role
Schedule 60 minutes for this session.
- Open Career Hub in the left-hand navigation bar.
- Under Team, click your direct report's name.
- Click the Role Clarity tab.
- Review the job description together and confirm it reflects the actual role.
- Add or edit responsibilities, projects, and tasks to close any gaps.
- Confirm your direct report understands all listed expectations before closing the meeting.
- Ask your direct report to rate each responsibility and task on the Energizing Work Scale before your next meeting.
- Schedule a follow-up meeting to review their Energizing Work results.
Meeting 2: Role Clarity — Energizing work review
Schedule 60 minutes for this session.
- Open Career Hub and navigate to your direct report's Role Clarity tab.
- Review each responsibility and task's energizing rating together.
- Identify the responsibilities that energize them most.
- Brainstorm ways to increase time spent on high-energy work toward 60–70% of the role.
- For de-energizing work, choose one of these approaches and document it:
- Automate — reduce repetition through tooling or process changes. - Offload — redistribute the task to a team member more energized by it. - Re-energize — identify a strength the employee can apply to the task.
- Leave a comment in the Role Clarity tab summarizing agreed actions.
Meeting 3: Strengths, values, and passions
- Open Career Hub and navigate to your direct report's Strengths tab.
- Review their top five strengths themes together.
- Share any strengths-based observations or patterns you have noticed.
- Review their top values and passions in the same tab.
- Discuss where their strengths and values appear in their current role.
- Identify at least one opportunity to apply a top strength more in their daily work.
- Leave a comment in the Strengths tab with any feedback or agreed next steps.
Meeting 4: Career vision
- Open Career Hub and navigate to your direct report's Career Vision tab.
> You have view-only access to this tab. You cannot edit your direct report's responses.
- Review their stated career vision and long-term aspirations together.
- Identify overlaps between their vision and current or future team needs.
- Discuss potential growth opportunities, stretch assignments, or skill gaps to address.
- Agree on one or two near-term actions that move them toward their vision.
- Document agreed actions in your 1-on-1 tool or a follow-up check-in in 15Five.
