Automated Reminders
Teams are reminded via email to complete their progress tracker regularly, increasing accountability and visibility. If they fail to provide an update in time, their initiative appears "blocked" and leaders reach out – a mistake teams will only want to make once!
See examples below:

Progress update:2025 Growth Strategy
Your initiative team must provide a progress update for your initiative(s) by Friday, January 24th at 5pm, at which time a consolidated progress report is automatically sent to leaders and others.
⚠️Your unsubmitted initiatives:
- Recruit 10 senior sales pros
- Restructure inbound team
- Revamp pricing model
Keep in mind:
- Progress updates give visibility to leaders and other teams.
- Be brief, clear, and specific so others understand your update.
- Be honest - the progress update is not a performance review.
- Initiative Owners are accountable, but any Team Member can complete the update.
- If your team doesn't provide an update, it will automatically appear blocked - you can't update after the deadline.

Why this works
Consistent Engagement
Regular email reminders keep teams engaged and ensure progress updates happen on schedule, preventing gaps in visibility.
Accountability Enforcement
When teams miss deadlines, their initiatives automatically appear as "blocked," prompting leaders to take action and maintain accountability.
Proactive Leadership
Leaders are alerted when initiatives go silent, enabling them to proactively reach out and address issues before they escalate.
Reduced Manual Effort
Automated reminders eliminate the need for manual follow-ups, saving time and ensuring consistent communication across the organization.
