Goals

​

What is a goal?

A goal in Juno is a structured development objective with action items, target skills, a timeline, and optional mentor support. Goals help you track professional growth — whether learning a new skill, preparing for a role change, or hitting a business target.

​

Creating a goal

Select Create a Goal on the Development Plans tab of My Development. Your admin chooses which suggestion categories appear. See Development Settings.

​

Time frame

Choose 2 weeks, 1 month, 3 months, or 6 months, or pick a Custom date. The default is 3 months. A preset time frame counts from the day you launch the goal.

​

Create a goal from a position

If your organization uses Career Paths, you can start a goal from a role — your current one or one you want to grow into. Juno compares your self-assessment with what the position expects and suggests where to focus. The new goal:

• Leads with what you picked. Juno writes a title that names your selected skills and competencies, and adds the date. The action items focus on them too.
• Stays about growth, not promotion, for your current role. If you started from your own position, the goal is about strengthening those skills in your role, not moving to a different one.
• Includes your selection. The skills and competencies you checked are added to the goal, with the position’s expected levels.
• Has a 3-month time frame, which you can change.

Action items

Each goal contains action items — the specific tasks you need to complete. Action items fall into three categories: Action items can link to:

• Internal content — courses from your Company Academy
• External content — courses from the On-Demand Catalog
• External links — any URL
• General tasks — freeform to-do items

Track progress on each action item individually. When every action item is complete, Juno marks the goal as completed.

​

Skills and competencies

Goals can include skills and competencies you’re working to develop. Select Add skill on a goal to add skills. When you create a goal from a position, the skills and competencies come from that position. Skill levels use your organization’s skill levels. By default they are Beginner, Junior, Proficient, Senior, and Expert. Skills in your goals connect to your organization’s competency framework — see Competencies & Skills.

​

Experts and learning partners

Goals support two types of support relationships. Both are available when your admin turns on the learning partner setting. See Development Settings. Expert (mentor):

• You invite an expert from Learn with on the goal page. Select Choose to pick one
• The expert receives a notification and can accept or reject
• Once the expert accepts, they can view your goal and track your progress
• Experts see the goals they support in a dedicated Goals I Support view

Learning partner:

• A colleague who supports your development
• If your goal has no expert, launching it includes an Add a learning partner step
• Your learning partner can see your goal and your ongoing progress

See Expert & Shared Goals for the expert and learning partner side.

Who can see your goals?

Team goals for managers

Managers see two extra tabs in My Development: My Team and My Team Goals. Both tabs are hidden on small screens.

​

My Team

My Team lists everyone in your reporting line, including indirect reports. Inactive people aren’t shown. Filter by name, direct manager, or last updated date. Sort by name, direct manager, or last updated.

​

Open a team member

Select View Goals to open a person’s page. It has these tabs: Use the back arrow next to their name to return to My Team.

​

Create a goal for a team member

Select Create Goal in the Goals column, or Create a Goal for on the person’s page. The flow matches creating your own goal, titled “Let’s find a goal for” the person. Juno notifies them that you created a goal for them.

​

My Team Goals

My Team Goals is a table of the goals of the people you manage. It works like Organization goals without the bulk upload.

---

​

Organization goals

Admins see an All Goals tab, such as All Acme Goals, with every goal in the organization. Managers see the same table as My Team Goals, limited to the people they manage. Filter most columns from their headers and sort the table. Select a row to open the goal. Select Export to download the table as an Excel file.

​

Bulk upload goals

Admins can create many goals at once with Upload from CSV. Good to know:

• Separate several action items in one cell with commas or semicolons.
• Save CSV files as UTF-8. Goal titles with accents or non-Latin letters then import correctly.
• If the end date is blank or Juno can’t read it, the goal gets a 3-month time frame.
• Focus Area accepts balanced, professional, or business. Other values are ignored.

​

Completing a goal

When you complete every action item on a launched goal, Juno marks it Completed. This:

• Records the completion date
• Notifies your manager, if your admin turned on Manager Goal Notifications
• Shows a Goal Achieved! card

On that card, select Keep Here to leave the goal in your active goals, or Archive to move it out of your main view. You can also archive goals you no longer want to pursue.
