Organisation Objectives are the strategic goals of your organisation. Set by leadership teams but visible to all team members the org objectives allow leadership to provide a clear roadmap of the strategic goals of your business to all employees. In the same way that employees are able to align their goals with the goals shared with them by colleagues employees can also align their goals to the organisation objectives of the business, helping to promote coherence across teams and drive organisational excellence. This article will explain how you can align your goals to the organisation objectives.

Who can align their goals to an organisation objective?
Anyone can - All Organisation Objectives (active, past, upcoming - published) are visible to all team members and therefore no additional action is needed to share these objectives with the business in order for employees to align their goals with these objectives.
Recommended: Organisation Objectives will in most cases be broad-ranging strategic goals. It is common for businesses to first ask department heads to align team goals with the organisation objectives and then share these more specific team goals with individual team members so that as businesses review the goal alignment of organisation objectives these become more specific as we move down the alignment tree.
How and where can I align with an organisation objective?
Goals can be aligned to organisation objectives in two primary areas, the Goals tab on the employee's profile and directly from the Organisation Objectives page on intelliHR.
