Goals everyone can see, from the board to the shop floor

Goals and objectives in Ten Space cascade from the organisation to departments, teams and each person, with a red, amber or green status anyone can read at a glance. They start from what your people have told you, and come up again in one-to-ones, 360s and appraisals. It is for leaders and HR teams who want objectives that people remember all year, and to see who is on track and who needs support.

Clear goals, in the open.

  • Set organisation-wide, shared and personal objectives.
  • Cascade them through departments and teams to each person.
  • Turn what a survey found into goals for each department, team and person.
  • Track red, amber and green status, and measure progress with key results.
  • Keep review cycles, and a history of every objective.
  • See an overview of who needs support.

From what your people said to who is doing something about it.

In the US, clarity about what is expected at work has fallen further than any other part of engagement since 2020, according to Gallup.

In Ten Space, goals start from what your people have told you. When a survey shows something to improve, the actions you agree carry through to goals for each department, team and person, each with an owner and a status. So the goals people are working on are the ones that matter to them.

Survey results on the Ten Space dashboard

Seen all year, not just at the review.

An analysis of 138 studies found that keeping track of progress helps people reach their goals, and helps most when progress is recorded or shared with others (Harkin and others, Psychological Bulletin, 2016).

Every objective in Ten Space has a red, amber or green status and a history, and an overview shows who needs support. So a manager can help in the next one-to-one, and an appraisal draws on the person's full history, not on memory.
