We’re proud to announce two minor improvements today:<\/p>\n

New Gridview tab in the user directory<\/h3>\n

We’ve added a new tab to the user directory that allows for easier filtering by categories such as department, location and role. At the same time, this tab puts a lot more emphasis on the user’s profile picture, helping you figure out “who was this person from marketing I recently met in the hallway?”. The new tab is placed to the right of the existing ones:<\/p>\n

New objectives weightings popup<\/h3>\n

Another nice improvement was added in the objectives overview. If you’re using the weighting feature, then all objectives within a cycle should add up to 100%. If not, we’ve always displayed a little warning hint. As of today, we also provide a very interactive helper screen to ensure your combined weightings equal 100%:<\/p>\n

\"Objective_Overview_of__Objectives_Q2_2015__-_Small_Improvements\"<\/a><\/p>\n

You can trigger that screen from the warning hint underneath each person’s objectives.<\/p>\n

But, is this newsworthy?<\/h3>\n

Admittedly, the two screens are not game changers. The interesting point is, these two features were developed by new staff that joined Small Improvements a mere 3 weeks ago<\/a>. Similar improvements were made to our backoffice toolset, and many more improvements are being worked on: Expect a neat “mini user profile” popup, user-statistics displayed over time, a lightning fast edit-user overlay, and so on in the next couple of weeks.<\/p>\n

The best thing is, our work on the main<\/em> features isn’t impacted. We’re currently wrapping up the objectives feature overhaul, and we’re hoping to roll it out to evaluators in two weeks, and then to existing customers a few weeks later. The cycle admin screens are up for a refresh next, and we’re also rewriting our user-importers, making CSV\/Excel userimports available as self-service feature soon. There’s a huge list of large tasks we’ll work on, but the nice thing is that our ability to slot in additional small improvements just increased dramatically.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
