ComposuraFor new managers
You get one shot at the real conversation.
Composura is a rehearsal room for the three conversations new managers dread. You type what you would actually say. Someone pushes back the way they actually will. Then you get graded — on the words you used, quoted back to you.
Launching September 2026. Five minutes, no account, nothing to set up.
Every rehearsal ends here
The scorecard is the point.
Most practice tools hand you a transcript and a compliment. Composura hands you a verdict, and it quotes you to justify it. Four axes, every time — each one scored, backed by a line you actually wrote, and paired with one specific thing to change next time.
Named the behavior, not the person
"You've missed three deadlines" lands. "You're unreliable" starts a fight.
Held the position under pressure
When they pushed back, did you stay put — or did you soften it away until it meant nothing?
Got to the point
How many turns went by before the real message actually arrived?
Left them with a path
Did they leave with a concrete next step, or just with criticism?
No generic praise. No "be more assertive."
Three situations, written like real ones.
Each one opens with a briefing: the history, the stakes, and what a good outcome would actually look like.
Critical feedback to a defensive report
Three missed sprints. He's capable, he knows it, and he doesn't think any of it is his fault.
Saying no to a senior stakeholder
A VP wants your team to absorb one more thing before quarter end. You have no room, and she is used to hearing yes.
Telling someone they didn't get the promotion
She expected it. She was told she was close. She didn't get it.
Choose how hard they make it.
The difficulty is the person across the table, not the app. Run the same situation three ways and watch which version of you survives.
Receptive
Engages in good faith. Mild pushback.
Defensive
Deflects, makes excuses, redirects blame.
Hostile
Questions whether you should be having this conversation at all.
Six to ten turns, with the clock running
Pick the one you're dreading
Built to feel like pressure, not like a chat app.
Replies arrive after a pause, the way a real answer does. A turn counter runs down in front of you. It's the right length for the gap before a 1:1 you're nervous about.
