From YouTube: Achievement Tracker Demo

Description

A walkthrough of how to use our Values Based Achievement tracker template.

A

Hi, I'm going to show you how to use the values based tracker. Some people may call it a credit tracker. Some people may call it a brag sheet. um Maybe you call it your accomplishment tracker whatever you call it, it's a great thing to have to store all of your accomplishments in. So um it's also great if you're, maybe not having a good day. You can pull this out and look at all the things you've accomplished and all the positive feedback you've received and really turn your day around.

A

So that's another reason that it can be great to have it. So um what you do is this is just a template, so you'll make a copy.

A

A

You can name it whatever you want, you can put it in your whatever folder you want and then you'll update just some pieces of this.

A

I'll put my actual name, so that's not confusing and then.

A

So uh this is really just a place to store all of your accomplishments. um Maybe there's a project you're working on right now you aren't sure um where it falls in the values clip the most um or where it most aligns. So you could add it there and then move it down into your list here later or maybe it's a project you're working on that just isn't done yet, and you don't want to add it to your list until you've completed it.

A

You can add a list of accomplishments here or in progress, accomplishments um and then down here. You'll have your values and you can add in um different things you have accomplished. So maybe you.

A

With the dip team to.

And then you can add like maybe that's, maybe you think it that aligns most with collaboration or maybe that aligns with diversity, inclusion and belonging. um You kind of can decide where to put some things could probably fall in multiple buckets, but you can choose where it goes, and then it's even better. If you have a link to an issue, we typically have issues for live learning sessions.

A

So I would probably just um like link this and add the link to the issue so that it would be easy reference on um what actually was done for that project and then this other section that I think is really fun. Is this positive feedback section and the way that I would use it and I've heard other people use? It is um say someone sends you a slack message like just referencing this someone sends you a slack message and says: hey juicy y'all did a great job on the inclusion training.

A

I really enjoyed it for these reasons xyz and you can screenshot that and then just add a screenshot into this positive feedback section um just to keep track of what people, what positive feedback people are giving you it's really nice to look back on what people really enjoyed that you did, and um it can also really help you identify some of your strengths, like maybe you're really great at presenting, and um you aren't feeling as confident in that area. But people keep giving you positive feedback about that.

A

It can be really helpful to identify some strengths that you have. So that is what the credit tracker looks like and kind of how you go about filling it out. So if you have any questions, feel free to reach out to our team in the learning and development slack channel.
