Create and Manage Teams

Team Management: 

The ability to create and manage teams of people within Leadr just took a huge leap forward. Users can now create teams and assign team leads for more effective project ownership and increased clarity across the board.

This will replace the current “user group” functionality in Leadr, so all existing user groups will become public teams. With Teams, members of a team can be managed in a central place so access to things like meetings and goals are automatically in sync with the members of the team.

Follow along below to see how teams can be used and leveraged to build highly relational groups.

All user types except for Limited Access users can create a private team meeting. However, Admins and Managers may benefit the most from creating teams

Using Teams | Leadr Advantage

If you’re one of our Leadr Advantage customers, take advantage of the opportunity to reinforce clarity for your teams by answering the Six Critical Questions so that they will show on Leadr Home. This keeps the most important thing front of mind at all times.


While the first four questions are set at a leadership level within the Admin Settings area, you can answer questions 5: "What is the most important right now?" and 6: "Who must do what?" and assign those for your individual teams.
