In Teamflect, administrators have the option to require users to provide a description when creating new goals. This feature ensures that all goals are clearly defined and understood, facilitating better tracking and alignment with company objectives.

Go to the Admin Center by visiting https://admin.teamflect.com.

In the Modules menu, locate the "Goals" module.

Toggle the switch that says "Make goal description mandatory."

Once enabled, users must fill in the goal description field when assigning a new goal.

This setting helps prevent vague or incomplete goal entries, ensuring that all team members clearly understand the goals they are working towards.

By making the goal description mandatory, HR can ensure that managers and employees clearly communicate the expectations and outcomes associated with each goal. This clarity helps prevent misunderstandings and sets a solid foundation for performance evaluations.

Detailed goal descriptions provide valuable context during performance reviews. Reviewers can refer to these descriptions to assess whether employees have met their goals and to understand the scope and intent behind each goal.

Mandatory goal descriptions encourage employees to think critically about their objectives and how they align with their career development. Managers or Individual Contributors can use these descriptions to identify areas where additional training or support may be needed.

Requiring goal descriptions helps ensure that individual goals are aligned with the company's strategic objectives. People managers can use these descriptions to monitor overall progress and make adjustments as necessary.

By implementing mandatory goal descriptions, Teamflect provides a structured approach to goal-setting, benefiting both employees and the organization as a whole.
