# Use Cases | Manager Readme

Manager Readmes aren't just for onboarding — managers use theirs to
speed up 1:1s, make hiring more personal, and stand out when speaking
publicly.

## Onboarding
Share your Readme with new team members on day one so they know where
to focus in their first 90 days, without repeating the same context in
every 1:1.

## 1:1s
Use your Readme to replace guessing and implicit expectations with
clarity, so 1:1s focus on growth and relationships instead of
misunderstandings.

## Hiring
Link your Readme from your LinkedIn profile or job posts to give
candidates a real sense of your leadership style before they apply.

## Public speaking
Share a link to your Readme instead of just a Twitter handle or email
after a talk, so people can get to know how you lead.
