Abstract
Bidirectional or multidirectional cascading goals allow goal progress to roll up or downstream multiple levels in an organization. This means that goals from be assigned by higher-level employees to lower-level employees and lower-level employees to higher-level employees. The progress of contributing goals directly modifies the progress of all upward goals to reflect accurate progress of the overarching goal. Goals can be standalone goals, or contribute to other goals. A connection between goals may be made during the goal creation process or after both goals have been created.
