Words used in Enginely

A short list of what each term means.

Workstream (also called a team or a call): a group that meets on a regular rhythm and has its own scorecard, priorities, to-dos and issues.

Scorecard: the table of numbers (KPIs) a workstream watches every week or month, each with a goal.

KPI: one measurable number on the scorecard. A linked KPI is a read-only copy of one that another workstream shares.

Priority: an outcome the team commits to finish this quarter, with one owner.

Headline: a short piece of good or important news shared at the start of the meeting. It is not discussed.

Issue: something the team needs to talk through and solve. The meeting spends most of its time here.

To-do: a small action with an owner and, usually, a due date. Open ones carry from one meeting to the next.

Lead: the person who runs a workstream. Leads can add people to a private workstream and share KPIs.

Board: a workstream's data opened outside a live meeting, with no timer. See The board.

Role: what someone can do in the workspace (owner, admin, member or viewer). See Members and roles.

My work: your own page of everything assigned to you. See My work.
