Using the Space Work Map

The Space Work Map provides a focused view of all goals and projects within a specific space or team. It helps team members and managers track progress, manage priorities, and maintain visibility into space-specific initiatives.

Accessing the Space Work Map#

There are multiple ways to access a Space Work Map:

From the Space page#

Navigate to the desired space, then click on Goals & Projects in the space tools section.

From the Company Work Map#

  1. Open the Company Work Map from the main navigation.
  2. Find a work item associated with the space you want to view.
  3. Click on the space name in the “Space” column to navigate directly to that space’s Work Map.

Understanding the Space Work Map layout#

The Space Work Map has a similar layout to the Company Work Map, with a few key differences:

1. Header section#

At the top of the Work Map, you’ll see:

  • The title showing the space name followed by “Work Map”
  • Navigation breadcrumbs to return to the space
  • Navigation tabs for filtering content (All, Goals, Projects, etc.)

2. Work items table#

The main table shows all work items within the space with columns for:

  • Name: The title of the goal or project
  • Status: Current status (On Track, At Risk, Off Track, etc.)
  • Progress: Visual indicator of completion percentage
  • Due Date: When the work is scheduled to be completed
  • Owner: The person responsible for the work
  • Next Step: The upcoming action needed

Note: When viewing the “Completed” tab, the columns change to show: Name, Status, Completed On, and Champion.

Filtering the Space Work Map#

Use the tabs at the top of the Work Map to filter the view:

  • All: Shows all goals and projects in the space
  • Goals: Shows only goals in the space
  • Projects: Shows only projects in the space
  • Paused: Shows work that is currently on hold
  • Completed: Shows work that has been finished

Benefits of using the Space Work Map#

  • Team focus: Concentrate on the work relevant to your team
  • Streamlined view: See only what matters to your specific space
  • Progress tracking: Monitor how your team is advancing on its commitments
  • Priority management: Ensure the team is focusing on the most important work first

You can easily move between viewing a specific Space Work Map and the overall Company Work Map:

  1. To go from Space to Company: Use the main navigation menu and select the Company Work Map
  2. To go from Company to Space: Click on any space name in the Company Work Map
