Recommendations for preventing goals to reach a progress of In Trouble
Before goals reach a progress of In Trouble, you can monitor them often and adjust their progress when they reach a progress of At Risk. Goals that are at risk are in danger of becoming in trouble.

Before your goals reach a progress of In Trouble, we recommend the following:
- Review goals that are have a condition of At Risk often that are assigned to you as well as organizational goals that are assigned to your teams, groups, or to your organization which might be affected by the progress of your goals.

Use the Goal List to view goals that belong to you, your teams, groups, or your organization.
