Employee Asks

Ambition is your platform to challenge yourself (and others), to get motivated, to be seen, to be heard, and to make an impact.

Employee Asks allows you to submit requests to your direct manager in Ambition or any one with Admin permissions in Ambition. Submitted Asks are trackable in Ambition, providing status updates and notes.

Type of Asks

• Coaching - Ask your manager for some 1:1 coaching
• Competition - Ask your manager for a new competition to be created in Ambition
• Edit/Fix in Ambition - Are you reporting to the wrong manager? Is a metric wrong?
• Goal - Ask your manager for a new goal to be created in Ambition
• Help - Ask your manager for help with something you're stuck on or that you can't do alone. Especially helpful for the notes that historically have gotten lost in Slack/Teams/Emails!
• Idea - Have an idea for a new metric, club, award, or TV slide?
