GOALS

Increase alignment and accountability on most important goals.

Our goal management software gives your organization visibility into individual, team, and organizational goals so that everyone stays focused on what matters most.

Align organizational, team, and employee goals

To keep your business strategy on course, individual goals should roll up into team goals, and team goals should roll up into company goals. Our software makes it easy to align cascading goals with just a couple of clicks so you can see and monitor the big picture.

Empower everyone to write meaningful, trackable goals

Goal setting is vital to both employee engagement and performance, yet it remains one of the most difficult things to coach. Our ✨AI-powered Goal Assistant simplifies goal writing and helps your teams craft high-quality goals in less time.

Bring visibility to cross-team work

Many organizations are breaking down silos in favor of cross-functional and connected teams. Our goal management software helps all employees have visibility into cross-team priorities and progress, empowering teams to work better together.

Collaborative goal assignments: employees can join goals as contributors or followers
Shareable goal updates: goal owners choose what progress updates are shared and when
Visibility settings: privacy controls allow goals to be public – or private to just the employee and their up-line managers

Keep goals top of mind all year long

Goals should not be a set-and-forget activity. Our tools help keep goals top of mind all year long with fun and interactive features that employees and teams love.

Live newsfeed: goal updates published to public activity feed in real-time
Real-time interaction: goal comments and likes drive conversation comment and like goal updates, or connect recognition posts to goals
Social recognition: an integration with our recognition tool helps you celebrate every milestone achieved
Performance conversations: an integration with our 1-on-1s tool makes goals a part of every check-in or performance conversation

Visibility into every goal, without the chaos

Managing every individual and team goal in a single place might not be realistic for your organization, especially not right away. Let your teams continue to create and track their goals in spreadsheets, but still benefit from the org-wide alignment and transparency of our tool. Our HR-friendly import features make it easy to create or update goals in bulk to help you create a source of truth for every goal in your organization.

Bulk goal creation: simple templates let HR import new goals for multiple individuals or teams
Goal tracking imports: customizable import templates to update progress on existing goals in bulk
Track impact of tool usage: analytics show you the progress of HR-generated goals vs. employee-generated goals

Flexible goal formatting for every need

Different goals call for different metrics. We’ve got you covered with multi-metric OKRs and single-metric SMART goals. Create a goal name, goal description, and goal tags to add context to the goal and help others understand it.
