Step 1: Choose a goal outcome
- Navigate to the goal or KR you want to close
- From the Menu choose “Close Goal” or “Key Result”
- Choose the right outcomes for the goal or key result
Completed
When teams achieve the Goal
Partial
When goal was nearly missed
Missed
When teams missed the Goal
Dropped
When the goal was reprioritised
When choosing an outcome, it is important to consider how committed vs stretch goals should be rated. See the table below which is often used by companies.
% Complete of a Stretch Goal | Outcome |
---|---|
> 70% | Completed |
40%-70% | Partial |
< 40% | Missed |
% Complete of a Committed Goal | Outcome |
---|---|
100% | Completed |
60%-99% | Partial |
< 60% | Missed |
Step 2: Add a closing note
A closing note is a retrospective on the goal. It can include sections like What went well, What can we improve, What are we learning and action items.
