Use AI to outline key points and questions before a tough employee conversation.
Before having a difficult conversation with an employee, open ChatGPT or Claude and ask it to help you organize your thoughts. Describe the situation briefly and request a clear list of key points to cover, along with suggested questions to encourage open dialogue. This helps you stay calm, focused, and prepared, so the conversation feels fair and productive for both sides.
