Keystone application · Objective steering

Cresco

Objectives get set in January and reopened in December. In between, not much. Cresco structures the cycle: leadership sets the course, the manager proposes, the employee accepts and tracks progress, the manager validates. All year round.

The problem

Steering objectives without a shared frame

Objectives are set once, in a spreadsheet or an email, then forgotten. No one really tracks progress. Come review time, it gets reconstructed from memory, on a hunch, not on facts.

  • Objectives aren't tied to any shared course or to company priorities
  • No weighting: everything counts the same, so nothing gets prioritised
  • Progress isn't tracked continuously, only noted at year end
  • Blockers don't surface until it's too late
  • Leadership has no consolidated view of what's moving or stalling

How it works

From the course to a tracked objective

Cresco gives the objective cycle a single frame. Each role has its place. Leadership sets the priorities, the manager turns them into weighted objectives, the employee tracks their steps and flags blockers, the manager validates. Progress computes itself.

01 · Priorities

Objectives, crossed by priority

A matrix places each objective by its priority axis and its impact level. You see at once where the effort concentrates, what weighs most, and what stays secondary. The manager and leadership arbitrate on this view.

  • Objectives crossed by priority and impact
  • Effort concentration visible at once
  • Filter by impact level

02 · Objective

The objective, split into weighted steps

Each objective carries a weight, an impact type and an impact level. It splits into dated, weighted steps. The employee logs actions, flags a constraint, then requests validation.

  • Steps with deadline and weight
  • Action log per step
  • One-click blocker flag
  • Validated and declared progress

03 · Employee

The employee tracks, with nothing lost

Their dashboard lists their objectives, the steps to finalise and what's overdue. They move step by step and declare as they go, without waiting for the review.

  • Progress, overdue items and objectives to accept
  • Steps to finalise highlighted
  • Matrix by impact and priority

04 · Manager

The manager steers the team

The manager sees each person's progress, the objectives to define, the steps to check and what's blocked. They propose objectives, adjust weights and validate steps.

  • Progress per employee
  • Objectives to define and weights to adjust
  • Steps to check and validate

05 · Leadership

Leadership keeps the course

A consolidated group view: average progress, objectives, blocked, validated. The matrix crosses impact level and type to see where value concentrates, and where things stall.

  • Group indicators at a glance
  • Impact level × type matrix
  • Read by organisation, priority or impact

06 · Setup

The frame is set once

Managers, employees and N+1 links, company impact types, annual campaigns. Leadership sets the frame once, it applies to everyone.

  • Teams, managers and N+1 links
  • Company impact types and priorities
  • Annual campaigns, open or closed
