Set a cadence's meeting type

A cadence's type shapes its recap and decides whether its meetings are matched to goals. A new cadence starts with no type.

Who can do this: a role with Manage cadences (Owners and Admins by default). Anyone else gets an error message. See Roles and permissions.

To set the type:

1. Go to Cadences.
2. On the cadence's row, click its type chip (not shown on phones). A cadence without a type shows Add type. The same chip is on each of its meeting pages.
3. Pick a type. To clear it, pick 'None'.

The types #

• Leadership Review, Department Review, Team Review, OKR Review
• 1:1, Stand Up, All Hands, Retrospective, Cross Functional, Planning
• MBR, WBR, QBR

Accept a suggested type #

Brev may suggest a type for a new cadence from its title, schedule and attendee count. It never applies one itself. To review a suggestion:

1. Click the cadence's type chip. Suggested type sits at the top of the menu.
2. Click the suggestion (for example Use 1:1) to accept it, or Dismiss suggestion to clear it.

Types and goal matching #

Admins choose which types are matched to goals in Goal alignment. Every type is matched except 1:1 by default.

A meeting with no type counts as a 1:1 when its invite has one or two attendees. So by default it isn't matched to goals.
