Conversation Starters - Working Remotely

To use the new Working Remotely Conversation Starter template, you first must have the 1:1 Conversations Platform enabled for your Reflektive instance. If by some reason you don't, please contact us at

Begin by going to the 1:1s tab, then selecting the person you'd like to have the 1:1 Conversation with. If you haven't created a meeting yet, you'll see the below screen. 

To get started, simply click on Create Meeting.

Next, you can establish the cadence in which you want to meet with this person (or skip for now, and establish a recurring time later.)

Once the meeting is set, you are free to +Add a topic of your own, but we highly encourage you to use one of our Conversation Starters templates, which have been developed through a combination of research and our conversations with experts.

Under Conversation Starters, you should see the Working Remotely template. Click on that!

After selecting the Working Remotely Conversation Starter template, you are able to choose one or as many of the 9 topics that you see present:

For example, let's say you select the three topics shown below:

When satisfied, click on Add Topics. They will automatically be added as Open Topics. You will see that they are tagged as Working Remotely as it came from a template. You are able to edit the topic, re-order the topic (by clicking and dragging when you hover over a topic) add comments (which you and the person you set up this 1:1 Conversation with will see), mark the topic as completed, and delete the topic.

You're done! We hope that your next 1:1 Conversations are productive and impactful, and that the outcomes from them positively impact how you are working remotely.
