Remote Performance Tracking Framework

Effective performance tracking is essential for managers to measure progress, identify risks, and ensure mission accomplishment. In the evolving landscape of asynchronous work, traditional tracking methods may fall short.

This Remote Performance Tracking Framework: offers a modern, team-based approach that fosters collaboration and drives mission success.

The Framework:

1. Define Goals:

   • Leaders establish mission goals that reflect the company's needs.

   • Goals should be transparent and open to feedback from all teams.

2. Determine Breakthroughs:

   • Managers identify breakthroughs or milestones based on mission goals.

   • Breakthroughs should be established once at the beginning of the mission.

   • Review breakthroughs weekly with teams and report progress to leadership.

3. Develop Outcomes:

   • Managers and teams collaboratively define outcomes required to achieve breakthroughs.

   • Outcomes should be tied to breakthroughs and continuously updated by the team.

   • Review of outcomes should be ongoing and reported asynchronously.

4. Establish Individual Task Lists:

   • Team members create their task lists to contribute to specific outcomes.

   • Encourage transparency in task organization and progress.

5. Track and Review Performance:

   • Create data metrics to measure team performance based on outcomes.

   • Ensure transparency of data and progress within the team.

   • Conduct weekly review meetings with the team and monthly meetings with leadership, either synchronously or asynchronously.

This framework provides an asynchronous, team-based performance-tracking method that focuses on mission accomplishment and fosters collaboration within the team. It simplifies the tracking process and can be adapted to various project complexities.

The simplified version is based on the popular OKRs adapted to remote work:

• Goals

• Breakthroughs

• Outcomes
