Yes, this is already a thing. Instead of piecing together feedback from scattered notes, you open Copilot in Microsoft 365. You ask it to pull highlights from your 1:1s, summarize progress on goals, and even draft review comments. In seconds, you have a clear, data-backed starting point—ready for your personal touch.
Example Copilot Prompts:
- “Summarize [employee name]’s progress on their goals this quarter using my OneNote and Teams notes.”
- “List key discussion points from my last three 1:1s with [employee name].”
- “Draft constructive feedback for [employee name] based on recent project outcomes.”
- “Highlight [employee name]’s strengths and suggest one area for development.”
- “Generate talking points for my performance review meeting with [employee name].”
Tip: The more organized your notes and goals are in Microsoft 365, the better Copilot’s suggestions will be.
