      Initiate a conversation in IDP

      Employees can add comments on their IDPs to initiate conversations with their managers or relevant stakeholders. They can also reply to messages from managers or stakeholders to discuss progress and development plans. This promotes communication and helps employees receive guidance for effective career growth.

      Admins and managers can add comments to guide employees, track progress, provide feedback, and involve additional stakeholders to support development plans.

      đŸ“’Note: By default, employees and their managers are participants in a conversation. However, managers (skip-level manager, secondary manager, and growth manager) above them in the hierarchy can add comments.

      After adding comments, you can manage them and also manage participants in the conversation if required.
