Getting Started with MeetFika

• Upcoming check-ins — your scheduled check-ins with your manager(s), sorted by date. Completed and cancelled check-ins move to History.
• Prep for Check-in button — every upcoming check-in card has a green Prep for Check-in CTA. One click takes you straight to the prep form, so you don't need to open the check-in first.
• Action Items widget — a quick summary of your outstanding follow-ups, showing total count, items assigned to you, and overdue items. Click it to open the full Action Items tracker. (Starter shows 3 rows; Member unlocks unlimited)
• Personal Tasks widget — your own private to-do list, separate from team follow-ups. (Starter: up to 3 active; Member: unlimited)

Click any check-in card to open it, or use the Prep for Check-in button to jump directly into the prep form.

Preparation is the single most valuable thing you can do to make your check-in productive. MeetFika gives you a structured Prep form to fill out before each check-in.

• Submit your prep before the check-in (ideally a few hours to a day ahead).
• You can edit your prep after submitting it, up until the check-in is completed.
• Prep is optional but strongly recommended.

Your sentiment scores are more than a checkbox — they form a trend line over time.

When you submit a prep with sentiment scores, MeetFika produces a small insights cardon your dashboard that names what your numbers are saying — in your voice, about you. The same scores always produce the same reading, so you and your manager are working from the same picture.

Starring is how you flag the things worth keeping in front of you and your manager — before the check-in (starred goals) and during it (starred moments).

Follow-ups are tasks created during a check-in that need to happen afterward.

• Check off follow-ups as you complete them — it keeps the record accurate.
• If a follow-up is blocked or needs reassigning, bring it up in your next check-in.
• Incomplete follow-ups carry forward automatically — when your manager completes a check-in, any open items appear in your next one.
• Your follow-up completion rate is visible to your manager and factors into reviews.

The Action Items page gives you a single view of all your outstanding follow-ups — without having to open each check-in individually.

• Filter tabs — switch between All, My Items (assigned to you), and Delegated (assigned to your manager).
• Complete from the tracker — check off items directly without opening the check-in.
• Deduplication — if an item carries over across multiple check-ins, it appears only once.

• Completed check-ins listed in reverse chronological order.
• Sentiment trends — visual charts showing how your scores have changed over time.
• Follow-up completion rates — what percentage of your action items have been closed.

Use History to prepare for annual reviews, track your progress, and identify recurring blockers or patterns.

My Notes is your private notebook, scoped per manager relationship. It's the employee-side counterpart to the Manager Private Space — only you can see what you write here. Your manager has no view into it, ever.

• One note per manager relationship — if you have a primary and a dotted-line manager, you get a separate note for each, and they don't overlap.
• Use it for things you want to remember to bring up but aren't ready to put on a prep yet — a half-formed concern, a draft of a difficult conversation, a list of small wins to mention later.
• It auto-saves as you type. Nothing is shared until you copy it into a prep, talking point, or career goal.

1. 1Navigate to Career Goals and click New Goal.
2. 2Fill in a title, description, category (Technical, Leadership, Business, or Personal), and target date.
3. 3Track progress (0-100%), add milestones, and update the status as you go.

Examples of well-structured goals:

• Goals can be linked to your relationship with a specific manager.
• Discuss goal progress during check-ins to stay aligned.
• Goal progress is included in annual reviews.

At review time, your manager creates a review that covers a defined period. MeetFika aggregates a year of check-in data into the raw material — sentiment trends, follow-ups, goals, starred moments, shared notes — so your manager has the full picture in front of them when they sit down to write:

• Your status updates and accomplishments.
• Sentiment trends and the patterns flagged across the period.
• Follow-up completion rates.
• Career goal progress.
• Shared notes and starred moments from your check-ins.

• View finalized reviews — once your manager marks a review as Final, it appears on your Reviews page.
• You cannot see drafts — your manager works on drafts privately before sharing.
• Use reviews for growth — treat the review as a roadmap, not a report card.

• Your Manager(s) — your primary and any dotted-line managers.
• Your Direct Reports — if you also manage people, they appear here.

This page is primarily for visibility. Your manager handles relationship changes (transfers, dotted-line assignments, etc.).

• Update your profile — change your name or job title.
• Change your password — update your login credentials.
• Notification preferences — placeholder for a future release. Email reminders and weekly digests aren't sent yet; the settings will go live when the feature ships.

Your MeetFika experience is shaped by your personal subscription. You start on Starter — everything you need to participate in check-ins, log blockers, and track your own sentiment trends.
