Managing your teams objectives

Go to the My Team section, click on the Performance tab, you will be directed to the Objective Insights tab.

Objective insights give you an overview of your team's objectives and their status at a glance.

In this article, we will discuss all the features available in this section. Please note that not all features may be visible to you as their visibility depends on your organization's policies.

Here, at the top of the page you are presented with a toggle to switch between Direct Reports and Indirect Reports. A direct report is an employee that works directly below you in the organization, often referred to as a subordinate. An indirect report, in contrast, reports to your own direct report. In other words, indirect reports are employees who work under you but report directly to your own direct report.

You can select the time frame you want to focus on by clicking on the dropdown box to the right.

You have the ability to remind team members with no objectives to set objectives for themselves, or team members who have not updated their objectives to do so.

Below, there are a few graphics to help give a visual reference of all the objectives and their different categories.

The Employee objectives overview gives you a breakdown of the objectives of each employee with respect to their status.

You can download this in the form of an Excel file for future reference.
