Overall result

Example: How the AI evaluates your training conversation

Illustrative sample using the real 70/30 evaluation model — not a live score from a real training. After every role-play a separate AI analyses your transcript with score, goal feedback and quotes.

Two layers feed the overall score: scenario-specific goals (70%) and five core competencies for your training type (30%).

Pro tip

Include one “non-negotiable” standard and make the timeline measurable. Example: “By 30 June, you send drafts by EOD Tue.”

Only your wording is evaluated — not the AI counterpart's. The AI's opening of the conversation is not penalised.

FAQs

How does this generator differ from standard templates?

Our AI-powered generator does not create static templates; instead, it tailors the guide to your specific situation. Factors such as industry, company size, employee position, and your conversation goals are all considered in the creation process. The result is a personalized 5-phase plan with specific phrases and questions that align with your context—not just general advice.

Do I need to register to use the guide?
No, registration is not required for use. Simply fill out the form, click 'Generate,' and you will instantly receive your personalized guide. You can save it as a PDF or print it directly. Registration is only necessary if you wish to use our AI role-playing feature.
What types of employee conversations is the generator suitable for?

The generator is suitable for all structured employee conversations: annual reviews, feedback discussions, development talks, goal-setting meetings, as well as challenging situations such as performance issues or conflict resolution. By using the 'Special Situation' field, you can set the focus accordingly and receive tailored conversation starters and questioning techniques.

How long will it take to create the guide?

The generation process takes an average of 30-45 seconds. During this time, our AI analyzes your inputs and creates a structured conversation guide featuring 5 phases, specific conversation starters, relevant questions, and actionable recommendations. Completing the form itself takes about 2 minutes, so you’ll be ready for your conversation in under 3 minutes.

Can I also use the generated guide for remote conversations?

Yes, absolutely. The guide is suitable for both in-person and virtual employee conversations. The conversation structure, questions, and techniques work regardless of the format. For remote discussions, we recommend having the guide readily available on a second screen or printed out. The clear phase structure helps you maintain focus during video calls.

What happens after generation? How can I prepare optimally?

After generation, you will receive a comprehensive guide featuring 5 conversation phases. We recommend the following steps: 1) Read the guide in its entirety (approximately 5 minutes), 2) Highlight the 3-4 key questions relevant to your specific goal, and 3) Optionally, use our AI role-play simulator to practice the conversation realistically and receive real-time feedback on your conversational skills. This way, you will be fully prepared for the discussion.
