Objective Tree

What is an Objective Tree?

To ease the navigation through the hierarchy of all the Objective’s Key Results / Sub-Key Results and Tasks via the Objective tabs (Worksheet, Kanban, and Timeline), we implemented the Objective Tree display in the sidebar of each of the aforementioned tabs. 

The Objective Tree bar can be used to navigate through your Objective’s objects, see the connection between them, and create new ones if necessary. 

Properties

In the Objective Tree bar, you can check out an existing hierarchy of your Key Results of various levels, create new ones, add Tasks, edit and complete your Key Results and Tasks.

Guidance
