Overview
WorkBoard's RAG rating colors highlight the risk that you won't hit the level of achievement expected on your OKR.
Confidence Ratings allow you to draw attention to hidden risks or opportunities earlier in the Objective time period. These ratings provide a subjective perspective of trajectory based on the institutional knowledge of risks and recovery initiatives.
Note: In order to add a Confidence Rating to a Key Result, you must first enable this feature. Reach out to your WorkBoard Customer Success Manager for assistance.
