Managerial Dashboard

Once a user has been assigned the system Manager permission in Ambition, a Managerial Dashboard will be created for them, and they will have access to the Managerial Dashboard through the Dashboard tab in the left navigation. Once they've been set as a Manager of users, either through Managing Groups in Ambition or being set as a Manager in a User's profile, their Managerial Dashboard will begin populating with data.

Scorecard

A Scorecard, the Activity and/or Objective tabs, on a Managerial Dashboard is a cumulative "super-score" of all the Scorecards for user's you manage.

A Scorecard on a Managerial Dashboard measures the weighted attainment of all Metric benchmarks for users you manage. Similar to grade-school, these scores are measured on a 0-100+ scale.

A 0-100 scale in conjunction with the red - orange - yellow - green - blue color progression gives you a quick, concise look into your team's performance.

Why is My Managerial Dashboard Scorecard Blank?

If at any point in time you see a blank Scorecard like the one below, whether it's the first time you log in or a year later, you will want to reach out to your Manager or Admin and have them verify your managerial relationships and create a scorecard for the groups/users you manage.

Productivity

On the Quadrant, you can see each of your Users based on correlation to their Activity and Objective Scores. The center is the median of each axis’ values, which designates the red & green areas of the graph.

Each point on the Quadrant represents a User. When the point is clicked on you will be able to see: the User's name, Activity Score, Objective Score, and Productivity Ratio.

Learn how the Quadrant can help power coaching conversations here.

Coaching

If the users you manage are involved in coaching events within Ambition, you can interact with those events right on your Managerial Dashboard!

Managerial Dashboard Scorecard Calculation

Groups Dashboards are perfect for seeing how specific Teams, Roles, Locations, and other Groups in Ambition are performing.

However, instead of having to view each individual User’s or Group's Dashboard, a look at a Managerial Dashboard can show collective progress.

Ambition compiles data from each User using weighted averages that take into account the varying Scorecards, Metrics, and Targets to generate a collective group score.
