The Goal Chart is a visual representation of all public goals within your organization. Clicking a goal displays any aligned goals, followers, associated meetings or projects, and where the goal sits relative to all others. ClearCompany also provides progress graphs on individual and team dashboards to help employees and managers track overall goal completion at a glance.

Before reaching the Goal Chart, you will land on the Goals Overview page. This page gives a high-level snapshot of your organization's goals and alignment.

The Overview page includes the following:

Our Mission: Displays your company's mission statement.
Our Vision: Displays your company's vision statement.
Company Values: Lists your organization's core values.
Alignment to Strategic Goals: Shows goals that have not yet been aligned to a strategic goal.
Strategic Alignment Goals: Displays goals that are aligned to the user assigned Strategic Alignment CEO.
Goal Grades Across Company: A chart showing goal grades distributed across the organization.

Note

Company Mission, Values, and Vision can be edited by a user with the HR Admin permission by navigating to Tools > Setup > Roles/Departments/Office and selecting the Company role.

The Goal Chart

To navigate to the Goal Chart:

Click on Company in your Dashboard, then click Goals & Performance.
Click on Goal Chart.
Click on any goal in the chart to view its aligned goals. Use the Fiscal Year dropdown in the upper right corner to filter the chart by fiscal year.

Symbols

While browsing the Goal Chart, you may see the following symbols displayed next to goals:

Flags with numbers: Indicates the goal has visibility beyond the goal owner (i.e., not fully restricted). The number represents the goal's priority ranking: 1 = highest priority, 2 = second priority, and so on.
Locks: Indicates the goal is private and visible only to the goal owner and Goal Admins.

Goal Progress Graphs

ClearCompany provides weighted goal completion percentage graphs across key dashboards to give employees and managers a clear picture of overall goal progress. These graphs calculate progress by weighting each goal according to its assigned weight. In cases where goal weights do not total 100%, the system automatically normalizes weights when calculating the completion percentage.

My Goals Dashboard (Employees)

Employees can view their total weighted goal completion percentage directly on their My Goals dashboard. This graph gives a single at-a-glance view of overall progress across all active goals, factoring in each goal's relative weight. To access:

Navigate to your My Goals dashboard, Me > Goals.
The weighted goal completion graph will appear at the top of the dashboard.

Team's Goal Status & Grades Dashboard (Managers)

Managers can use the Team Goal Status & Grades dashboard to monitor employee goal progress, review completion percentages, and identify team performance trends.

Reporting to Me

The Reporting to Me view displays goal information for employees who currently report directly to you. This view includes:

Goal statuses, grades, and overall progress for each direct report.
Goals aligned with the manager.
Individual employee goal progress and completion details.

If an employee’s goals are configured as private or visible only to themselves, the dashboard will display the message: This employee has no visible goals.

Per-Report Completion Percentage: Each direct report's total weighted goal completion percentage is displayed on the dashboard, allowing managers to quickly assess individual progress across the team.
Team Completion Graph: A graph displays the weighted goal completion percentage across all reports, enabling managers to identify trends and spot employees who may need additional support. This graph is available to both direct supervisors and matrix managers.

Manager & Peers

The Manager & Peers view displays:

Team goal statuses.
Individual employee goal statuses and progress.

To access:

Navigate to the Team's Goal Status & Grades dashboard by selecting Team > Goals.

Weight Normalization

If an employee's goal weights do not add up to 100%, ClearCompany will automatically normalize the weights before calculating the completion percentage to ensure accurate reporting.

FAQ

Can I filter the Goal Chart by team or department?

As of now, the goal chart can only be filtered by Fiscal Year.

Why doesn't a goal appear on the Goal Chart?

If a goal does not appear, the visibility settings are set to Just Me. If they would like to appaer it would have to be set to Everyone.
