Team management

Put the right people on the right priorities

Strategy only works when people, roles, and ownership are clear. Elevale connects org structure, custom permissions, and assignments to OKRs, KPIs, and tasks, so every person knows what they own and directors see how the whole organisation executes.

In short

Team management is how you bring your organisation into the same workspace as your strategy. Build an org chart with teams and reporting lines, create custom roles with scoped permissions and visibility, assign people and teams to OKRs and KPIs, and oversee task workloads, all connected to the priorities leadership already agreed.

A better way to manage your team

Without connected team management

  • Organisation structure lives in HR tools, slide decks, or spreadsheets disconnected from execution
  • OKR and KPI owners are unclear or duplicated across separate tools
  • Everyone sees everything, or sensitive strategy data is over-restricted
  • Task assignment happens without role context or strategic linkage

With Elevale team management

  • Org chart, teams, and member directory live in the same workspace as OKRs and KPIs
  • Custom roles control permissions and visibility by tab, feature, and data scope
  • People and teams assign to objectives, key results, and KPIs with clear ownership
  • Task workloads roll up through the same people and teams leadership already manages
Organisation structure

Build your org chart the way your business actually runs

Map reporting lines, teams, and member counts in one living structure, not a static HR export. Directors and team leads see how departments connect, who reports to whom, and how headcount is organised, with missing roles and key-person over-reliance flagged directly on the chart before assigning work or objectives.

Custom roles

Create roles with the permissions and visibility each person needs

Define custom roles with scoped access to brief tabs, OKRs, KPIs, dashboards, wiki content, and admin functions. Directors retain full visibility; team leads and contributors see only what their role requires, no over-sharing, no blind spots.

OKR & KPI ownership

Assign people and teams to objectives and metrics

Connect individuals or entire teams to objectives, key results, and KPIs at company, department, and Key Result level. Everyone sees who owns what before the review, not during it, the same ownership model OKRs, dashboards, and health scores read from.

Task oversight

Manage execution across roles and departments

Assign tasks with owners, due dates, and OKR context. See workloads by person or team, track completion against the objectives those people own, and keep daily execution tied to strategic priorities, not orphaned to-do lists.

FAQ

Common questions about team management

Quick answers on how teams, roles, and assignments work in Elevale.

Can I assign people and teams to OKRs and KPIs?

Yes. Assign objectives, key results, and KPIs to individuals or entire teams at company, department, and Key Result level. Ownership is visible across OKRs, dashboards, and health scores, everyone sees who owns what before the review.

Can I create custom roles with specific permissions?

Yes. Create custom roles with scoped access to brief tabs, OKRs, KPIs, dashboards, wiki content, and admin functions. Directors retain full visibility while team leads and contributors see only what their role requires.

How does visibility work across departments?

Custom roles control what each person can see and edit across the workspace. Department leads see their teams and priorities; directors see the full picture. Sensitive strategic data stays permissioned without locking people out of the context they need.

How do tasks connect to team members and roles?

Tasks assign to individuals with due dates and OKR context. Workloads roll up by person and team, so team leads and directors see whether daily execution aligns with the objectives those people own, not isolated to-do lists.

Can I build an organisational chart in Elevale?

Yes. Map reporting lines, teams, and member counts in a living org chart inside your workspace. The same structure connects to OKR ownership, task assignment, onboarding, and Strategic Direction, so you have one shared team structure, not a separate HR export.

How do invites and licenses work?

Invite team members from workspace admin and assign them a role with the right permissions. Licenses control how many active members your plan includes, see Understanding Licenses in the help centre for plan details.

How does team management connect to Strategic Direction and dashboards?

Team structure in Strategic Direction and your workspace org chart read the same people data. Role-scoped dashboards, business health scores, and the AI advisor all use your team model, when assignments change, the rest of the platform reflects it.

Can I manage multiple teams under one workspace?

Yes. Create teams with members, reporting lines, and assigned objectives at department and squad level. Directors see roll-up across the organisation; team leads manage their own people, OKRs, and task workloads.
