Description

This article briefly describes the abilities/permissions that users will have in Goals and Objectives.


Key Information

If you can see an objective in the Explore Goals Menu (For You > Goals > Explore Goals), you can access/view it. You will only see objectives that you can view or edit here.

If the Goal is a Public Goal, any user can see it via the menu described above. However, Admins have access to see, edit, and delete, any Goal that is on the platform via the Goal Explorer.

Personal and Individual Goals (private and public) Key Results are always owned by the Objective Owner. This means that any Key Result made on a Personal/Individual objectives belongs to the objective owner, not the Key Result creator. (You can still view who created the Key Result in the Event Logs)

Group Goals & Group Key Result owners must be members of the selected Group of managers of the selected group. If you select "Group" as a type, then you have to select a specific Group, if you do so then the "Owner" of both the Goal itself and all its Key Results HAS to be a member of that Group.

Only Managers and Members of a Group can create objectives for that Group.
