People leaders need sentences, not sessions.
Ren sits alongside your managers in the flow of work—spotting the moments that need a word of feedback, a conversation about ownership, a bit of praise—and helps them say the right thing at the right time.
The right sentence at the right moment changes everything.
A workshop teaches frameworks. Ren finds the moment—and helps your manager say the thing that actually needs to be said.
How it works
From Slack to coaching in three steps
Connect
One-click Slack or Teams integration. Managers opt in and share the context they choose. Ren uses it to deliver personalized coaching—private to each manager, never shared with anyone else.
Surface
Every morning, a private brief: who needs recognition, who’s gone quiet, what’s coming up in your 1:1s. Not noise — signal.
Coach
When the moment hits, Ren goes deep. Questions that challenge your assumptions. Patterns you’re not seeing. Then it drafts the feedback and preps the 1:1.
Sentences, not scripts
What Ren sounds like
“My report missed another deadline”
Here’s a script for a performance conversation
“What did you say the first time it happened?”
“I need to give tough feedback”
Try the SBI framework: Situation, Behavior, Impact
“What are you afraid will happen if you’re direct?”
“I have a difficult conversation coming up”
Here’s how to structure a difficult conversation
“What’s the conversation underneath the conversation?”
“I don’t think they’re the right fit”
Here’s how to build a PIP document
“Have you told them what you actually need to see change?”
“How do I motivate my team?”
Try recognition programs, team offsites, and clear goals
“What’s the one thing your team isn’t saying to you right now?”

“Before this, I either avoided tough conversations or went too hard. Now I have a middle gear. My team actually thanks me for the feedback.”

For People Leaders
Give every manager a coach. Finally.
You’ve tried the training programs. The offsites. The e-learning modules. And you know the truth: most of it doesn’t stick.
Ren is a coaching agent that lives inside Slack and Teams. Your managers opt in, share what’s happening, and Ren coaches them through it—privately, every day.
No mandated usage. No gamification tricks. Just coaching that’s so good, managers voluntarily use it 8–9 times per week.
Adoption solved
8–9 sessions/week, 6+ months — voluntary
$40/mo per leader
vs. $3,000–$5,000/mo for a human coach

Companies
Everyone says they want a feedback culture. But there are good reasons it hasn’t happened: people want to be liked, there’s no role modeling from the top, and feedback only ever seems to be about performance, not growth.
Good Authority has been used by 100,000+ managers at hundreds of companies over 15 years. We know what works. It’s not another session. It’s the right sentence at the right moment—and a question that gets you out of your head.
Everyone deserves to feel more connected at work. Not managed by machines. Connected.
