Empowering Managers
The new AI features empower managers at all levels to effectively translate strategic priorities into actionable goals for their teams. This ensures accountability, focus, and enhanced coaching, enabling teams to achieve their best results. With these tools, managers can drive true business outcomes and become world-class coaches, fostering a culture of peak performance within organizations.
“Achieving an organization’s strategic priorities is highly dependent on how effectively managers translate those priorities, take accountability for them, and coach individuals to contribute to those outcomes,” said Deidre Paknad, CEO and Co-Founder of WorkBoard. “Now every manager can more skillfully drive team outcomes aligned with business strategy and elevate individual contributions.”
Key AI Capabilities
