Insights and Insight Types can help admins and managers focus and organize ongoing conversations around an employee.

Insight Followers

Any Follower for an Insight is notified when a new Insight is created for a followed employee.

Insight Visibility & Comment Notifications

Insights created for an employee are not visible to the employee themselves. 

Users with visibility into an employee's Insight include:

  • Other users with visibility for the employee, i.e. their manager, upline managers, and admins

Similarly, users with visibility into an employee can comment on an existing Insight. Any user with visibility into an employee can view these comments, but only followers receive email notifications for new comments.
