Goal Progress Report
The Goal Progress Report helps admin users track how active goals are progressing—right in the platform, with no need for manual exports or analysis. It provides a high-level view of goal progress across teams, helping you monitor alignment and identify where support may be needed.
At the top of the report, you’ll see a summary of overall progress:
Total Progress – The combined percentage progress of all active goals
Goal Status – A percentage breakdown of goals marked as On track, At risk, Off track, or Completed
You can also view goal progress by demographic using the Group by filter. This lets you break down the report by any level of your organization’s structure (e.g. department, team).
The report includes the following columns for each group:
Total employees – Number of employees in that group
Number with a goal – Employees with active goals progressing against key results
% on track – Percentage of goals currently marked as On track
% at risk – Percentage of goals marked as At risk
% off track – Percentage of goals marked as Off track
% completed – Percentage of goals that have been completed
To export the Goal Progress Report:

The exported file contains the same fields as shown in the table.
FAQs
Who has access to the Goals Usage reports?
Account administrators, Goals administrators, and Group Goals administrators (for their assigned groups) have access. Account and Goals admins can view reports for the entire organization, while Group Goals admins can only see the departments and teams they have cascading permissions to view.
Where can I get a detailed view of who has goals and who doesn’t?
To see who has goals and who doesn’t, simply download the Goals Usage CSV report. It provides a breakdown of employees with assigned goals as well as those without.

Why is my export missing goals?
The date range filter automatically sets a two-year range from the day you're exporting the report. If the goals you're expecting have a due date beyond this range (in the future), you'll need to adjust the two-year filter to include them.
Will the reports include goals with all visibility types?
Yes. Since the report is only visible to admins, it includes all goals—regardless of their visibility (e.g. private, team, or company-wide).
How is the Goal Progress Report different from the Goal Creator Report?
