Abstract
Methods and systems for resource and organization achievement are described. In one embodiment, outcome data associated with a resource may be received. The outcome data may include an outcome time period, an outcome title, an outcome priority, an outcome status, and an outcome access level. The outcome status may identify progress by the resource toward an outcome. The outcome access level may define resource access to an outcome item. The outcome data may be stored in a database. A display of an outcome item associated with the resource may be generated based on at least a portion of the outcome data. The outcome item may represent the outcome for the resource. Additional methods and systems are disclosed.

- wherein the display of the outcome item includes indicia of a determination that the additional item is linked and the display of the additional item includes indicia of the determination that the additional item is linked;
- receiving a new outcome item request for a new outcome item and storing the new outcome item request via a new first box of the user interface associated with the database in the memory;
- populating a user interface with default outcome data based on receipt of the new outcome item request, the default outcome data including a default outcome status, and a default outcome access level,
- wherein receipt of the outcome data is through the user interface and at least some of the outcome data is not populated;
- and
- securing the new outcome item via the first box of the user interface from changes by devices other than changes from a manager device, an owner device that owns the outcome item, a device with the assigned outcome access level, or combinations thereof.
A method comprising:
- receiving an incentive request associated with a resource item and an incentive template, the incentive request including incentive data associated with the resource item, the incentive data including an incentive title, an incentive status, and an incentive access level, the incentive status identifying progress by a resource item toward a defined incentive, the incentive access level defining other resource access to an incentive item beyond the resource item, the incentive request to provide enterprise outcome management within an organization outcome strategy, the incentive access level defining other resource access to the incentive item beyond an incentive owner of the incentive item, and the incentive item identifying one or more accomplishments to achieve another incentive item or an ultimate outcome of the organization outcome strategy;
- storing the incentive data in a first electronic box of the user interface associated with a database in a memory;
- storing the resource item in a second electronic box of the user interface associated with the database in the memory;
- securing the incentive request from change except when a change is by a manager device, an owner device that owns the incentive item, or a device with the incentive access level with the change supporting at least part of the organization outcome strategy;
- and
- generating a display of the incentive item associated with the resource item based on at least a portion of the incentive data, the incentive item representing the incentive request for the resource item, the incentive item being related to the incentive template;
- wherein generating the display of the incentive item further comprises:
- generating an additional item display, the additional item display including display of an additional item, generation of the display of the incentive item being in a first pane of a user interface, generation of the additional display being in a second pane, determining that the additional item is linked to the incentive item,
- wherein the display of the incentive item includes an indicia of a determination that the additional item is linked and the display of the additional item includes the indicia of the determination that the additional item is linked;
- receiving a new incentive item request for a new incentive item and storing the new incentive item request via a new first box of the user interface associated with the database in the memory;
- populating a user interface with default incentive data based on receipt of the new incentive item request, the default incentive data including a default incentive status and a default incentive access level,
- wherein receipt of the incentive data is through the user interface and at least some of the incentive data is not populated;
- and
- securing the new incentive item from changes by devices other than changes from the manager device, an owner device that owns the incentive item, or a device with the incentive access level.
A method comprising:
- identifying a plurality of resources associated with an organization from remote devices over a network, the plurality of resources including at least a first resource and a second resource, the first and second resources contribute to an enterprise outcome management and an incentive item associated with an organization outcome strategy including one or more outcome items to achieve an outcome in the organization outcome strategy;
- storing the plurality of resources in an electronic box of a user interface associated with a database in a memory;
- generating a first display at the user interface based on identification of the plurality of resources, the first display including a representation of the identification of the plurality of resources;
- receiving a resource selection selected by a user associated with the second resource from the first display at the user interface based on generation of the first display;
- storing the resource selection in a resource location in the memory;
