Cycles Settings

🔁 Settings: Cycles Tab (Admins Only)

The Cycles tab under Settings allows organization administrators to manage how strategic planning cycles are structured and tracked across your team. This feature ensures alignment and consistent rhythm in planning, execution, and review.

🧩 What Are Cycles?

Cycles represent a defined time period during which your organization plans and executes strategic objectives — typically quarterly. They are used to timebox your OKRs, tasks, and progress tracking so everyone works in sync.

⚙️ Cycle Configuration Options

As an admin, you can customize two key aspects of your cycle framework:

1. Cycle Duration

Set the length of each planning cycle. Common options include:

• Weekly 

• Monthly

Once set, this duration will apply uniformly to all cycles going forward.

2. Cooldown Period (optional)

Specify a cooldown window (e.g., 1–2 weeks) between the end of one cycle and the start of the next. This time is ideal for reviewing results, holding retrospectives, and preparing for the next planning phase.

✅ Enabling Cycles

Make sure Cycles are enabled for your workspace to:

• Link tasks and OKRs to specific cycles

• Enforce start and end dates for task logs

• Generate AI-powered OKR summaries based on weekly cycle updates

Once enabled, users will be prompted to associate new goals and tasks with an active cycle.

🔒 Admins Only

Only organization admins can access and edit Cycle settings to ensure consistency across the team.
