1. Navigate to Goals Section
From the left navigation panel, click on Goals to begin creating a new goal
2. Access Alignment Options
When you click Create Goal, you will see the Alignment section. Here, you will find two options: Key Result to Parent Goal & Align Goal to Parent Goal
3. Using “Key Result to Parent Goal”
If you select Key Result to Parent Goal, enter the name of the parent goal you want your new goal to contribute to
4. Add or Remove Alignments
You can add multiple alignments if required, or remove an alignment at any time before creating the goal
5. Using “Align Goal to Parent Goal”
If you select Align Goal to Parent Goal, choose the parent goal your new goal will be associated with the basic difference is that Key Result to Parent Goal allows your goal’s progress to directly contribute to the parent goal, whereas Align Goal to Parent Goal only links the goal as a dependency and does not impact the parent goal’s progress
6. Create the Goal
After configuring alignments, click Create to save the goal with its alignment settings
7. Viewing Parent Alignment
If a goal is aligned to another, it will appear above the parent goal. Click on it to view the alignment details
8. Review Goal Alignment Details
Under Parent Alignment, you can see all the parent goals this goal is linked to. In the example, the first alignment is Key Result to Parent Goal, which means any progress made on the current goal will automatically update the first parent goal. The second alignment is Align Goal to Parent Goal, which only creates a connection, so progress on the current goal will not update the second parent goal
