2. Company Goals
Set at the organizational level, company goals reflect the business’s overall mission and vision.
Examples: increasing annual revenue, improving product quality, reducing operating costs.
3. Department Goals
Set for a specific department, these goals connect team objectives with company-wide initiatives.
Examples: improving departmental efficiency, reducing costs, increasing product-specific customer satisfaction.
4. Self-Development Goals
Set by employees for personal or professional growth, these goals encourage skill development beyond daily tasks.
Examples: learning a new language, improving public speaking, mastering a new software application.
Note: Admins can create custom goal types in addition to these defaults, tailoring Teamflect to organizational needs.

HR can encourage employees to set individual and departmental goals that directly support company-wide priorities, ensuring alignment across all levels of the organization.
