Team goal setting

Team managers or administrators can set up goals in minutes

Goals are often created at the team level with all the team members working together to achieve collective goals. Team goals apply to all active team members. These goals can be evaluated by either the team manager or other persons within the company. All team members see the goals within their result areas, and clarity is maintained on progress in achieving those goals.

Individual goal setting

Employees can create and manage their own goals

Creating goals is a simple process for employees. Goals can be professional, personal, or part of the overall vision of the organization. As part of the goal creation process, employees can schedule completion dates and set them as targets, certifications, or simple competency-based accomplishments. Once goals have been set up, evaluations can be auto-scheduled to collect progress reports.

Evaluations & reporting

Goal evaluations lead to clear actionable reporting

Goal evaluations can be configured to be sent out weekly, monthly, quarterly or yearly. Employees can also opt to send out evaluations at will. Completed goals are tracked with the requested and actual completion date, and remain part of the employee record. Reporting shows trends on how effectively goals were achieved and if there were any challenges encountered in the process.
