This document proposes a way to improve both employee productivity and engagement using a simple online platform and processes. It claims that traditional annual reviews and goal-setting do not support productivity in the modern world. The proposed approach aims to 1) energize meaningful connections between important goals, 2) continuously measure progress towards goals, and 3) foster growth through feedback. The document invites the reader to try the approach with a team of up to 30 people for a quarter before deciding whether to continue.

progress against these ‘things that really
matter’.
