Introducing the New Goals Explorer List View

Overview

The new Goals Explorer List View is designed to give employees and managers complete clarity into goal progress, alignment, and check-ins — all from a single, streamlined view. With improved hierarchy visibility, intuitive progress updates, and instant access to check-in history, goal management is now easier and far more actionable.

A Modern, Insightful View of Your Goals

When you open the My Goals tab under Performance > Goals > Me, you’ll now see a refreshed layout that presents:

1. Goal hierarchy at a glance — sub-goals, tasks, and child objectives are visually grouped.

2. Average progress visualisation — a clearer trend line of how performance has moved over time.

3. Goal status breakdown — Not started, On track, At risk, Needs attention, Closed.

Filter by Goal Type, Status, Tags, or use search to instantly locate any goal.

Visual Clarity in Every Goal Tile

Each goal tile is redesigned to show the most important details upfront:

Goal Structure Summary

1. You can view:

• Number of sub-goals

• Number of tasks

• Number of child objectives

• Metric type and progress

This gives immediate insight into how complex or simple a goal is.

Owner & Due Date Visibility

1. Clear labels show:

• Goal owner (Individual / Team / Department)

• Due date

Dual Progress Indicators

1. Progress is now shown in two formats:

• Percentage (% progress)

• Absolute values (e.g., 0 → 100%, 1.0K → 100%, depending on metric type)

  

This helps avoid confusion and provides deeper context.

Expand & Explore Goal Hierarchy in line

1. With the new Show Child Objectives button, users can expand goals inline to view:

   Sub-goals

   Tasks

   Child objectives

   Their respective progress and due dates

   

2. The expansion happens instantly without page reloads — even for goals with multiple layers.

   

3. This ensures complete visibility into alignment and contribution of all supporting goals. Child objectives appear only after clicking the Show Child Objectives button.

Seamless Progress Updates with Check-ins

Updating goal progress is now effortless.

How Check-ins Work

1. Earlier users could slide the progress bar to update progress and click on check-in.

   

2. Now you can also click the Check-in icon next to any goal to update the progress bar..

3. A clean side panel opens showing:

   • Current value

   • Target value

   • New value input

   • Status dropdown (On track, Behind, At risk, etc.)

   • Notes section

   • Option to add attachments

4. Click Check-in to save.

   

The updated progress instantly reflects in the goal tile.

Viewing Last Check-in Details in One Click

1. Employees and managers can now instantly see the most recent update.

   

2. Click the Last Check-in icon to open a detailed summary:

• Who checked in

• When it was updated

• Progress source (manual / alignment update)

• Status change

• Current value vs. target

• Notes added

  

This transparency helps with accountability and review discussions. If your goal end date has passed, it will show as overdue.

Smooth Navigation Through Multi-Level Goals

Large goal structures are now easier to navigate.

The redesigned view ensures:

• No lag while expanding goals.
