Employees can add new goals to the goalsheet and delete the goals that are not relevant to them. The progress on these goals can be captured and discussed in frequent check-ins.

6. Select the preferred option for Parent goal to associate the goal that you are creating. The parent goals can be the manager’s goals or company’s goals. You can create a child goal of the parent goal or copy the parent goal as is as your goal.
To understand the parent goal, consider your manager is assigned a goal to increase 30% sale. You can now add a goal and use your manager’s goal as your parent goal. You can assign a different weight to the goal as 30% sales increase target may be for the entire team. You may have to increase only 10% sales.
On the other hand, you can copy the parent goal as it is if it is your responsibility to increase the sales by 30%. In such a scenario, the entire goal can be copied as it is with weight and description.
