Assigning Goals to Your Team

How to set goals for your employees from the Action Center, with the note that this option appears only when the admin has enabled manager-assigned goals.

Written by Abdelrahman Tarek

Before You Start

  • This guide is for Managers in Lumofy

  • The option to add goals appears in your My Team tab only when your Admin has assigned the goal-adding step to managers in the performance cycle workflow

  • You set goals for one team member at a time, on their performance sheet

Overview

When your Admin sets the goal-adding step to managers, a task appears in your My Team tab to add goals for each team member. Opening it takes you to that person's performance sheet, where you set their goals, competency KPIs, and training needs, then send the sheet to the Talent.

📝 Note: This option appears only when your Admin has enabled manager-assigned goals in the cycle workflow's goal-adding step, and only once that step is active. If you do not see it, adding goals is not your responsibility in the current cycle.


Open the Goal Task

  1. Go to your Home and select the My Team tab.

  2. Open the task to add goals for your team.

  3. Select the team member whose goals you want to set. Their performance sheet opens.

The performance sheet shows the cycle and the person at the top, for example "Q4 2025 Performance Cycle" and "[Name] goals", with Cancel and Send for Talent.


Set Goals

  1. In the Goals section, select the Add Your First Goal field.

  2. Select Set Up Goal to define the goal's details.

  3. Repeat to add more goals.

💡 Tip: Select Ask AI to generate suggested goals you can review and adjust, instead of writing each one from scratch.


Set Competency KPIs

  1. In the Competencies section, expand a competency.

  2. In its KPI field, enter a measurable indicator, for example "improve customer satisfaction".


Add Training Needs

  1. In the Training Needs section, select Add Manually to enter a training need yourself.

  2. Or select Select from Lumofy to choose existing learning from Lumofy.


Send to the Talent

  1. Review the goals, KPIs, and training needs on the sheet.

  2. Select Send for Talent to send the performance sheet to the team member.

⚠️ Warning: Once you select Send for Talent, the sheet goes to the Talent. Review the goals and details before sending.
