New release: Ambitions And Outcomes

Help Clients Rank Their Ambitions
and Keep Track of Outcomes
- A new way to help clients focus on what matters

All business advisors speak with their clients about their ambitions, and work to turn them into measurable outcomes. Today, we are proud to introduce a new tool on GrowthWheel Online Beta: A scoreboard where you and your clients can rank ambitions and keep track of outcomes.You can make a list of your clients' ambitions and rank them in terms of what to focus on. 

When ambitions are turning into outcomes you can keep track of them quarter by quarter to see for yourself - and show your client - all the results and achievements you have created together. 

To try out the new features go to My Clients, select a client and go to the new menu "Scoreboard". Here you can add ambitions and outcomes for your client.


#1 New Menu Scoreboard

Select a client and go to the new menu "Scoreboard". Here you can create ambitions and outcomes by switching between the two views.


#2 Create a New Ambition

To create a new ambition select the submenu "Ambitions" and click on "New". You can now give the ambition a title, select the work area, a category and the quarter and year of when you expect to fulfill the ambition. Then save it as a draft or share it with your client.


#3 Add Decisions and Actions to Each Ambition

You can add decisions and actions to each ambition. They will both show up below the ambition and in the 30-60-90 Action Plan. 


#4 Monitor Ambitions with Traffic Lights

You can rank all ambitions with a simple traffic light system to monitor their progress:
Is the ambition somewhat a challenge, in progress, or on track? 


#5 Create a New Outcome

To create a new outcome select the submenu "Outcomes" and click on "New". You can now give the ambition a title, select the work area, a category, the quarter and year, and if it is a result or an achievement. Then save it as a draft or share it with your client.


#6 Result or Achievement?

Results are meassureable outcomes such as revenue growth, a new time-saving process, or a stronger market position. Archivements are something you can be proud of such as launching a new product, hiring a new employee, or receiving an award. 


#7 Keep Track of All Outcomes

You and your client can use the Scoreboard to keep track of all results and achievements quarter by quarter.

With our June release, it is now possible to track your clients’ progress in a way that has never been possible before!

We are introducing two new charts in the Dashboard Menu so you can monitor all your clients’ completed decisions and actions, whether they are added to the cloud by you or your clients. With the latest features in GrowthWheel Online Beta you can see this on the updated dashboard:

Decisions and actions completed per month for each client

• Amount of work completed for each of the four main work areas in the business
