Enable/disable following Objectives

This article discusses how to either enable or disable the ability for people in your company to follow each other's objectives. Following objectives allows people visibility into objectives and key results that they themselves don't own, but may be stakeholders in. This feature is especially helpful for companies with high collaboration and for people who want to stay up to date on an objective's latest progress.

✏️

Note

The objective owner cannot restrict who can follow their objective if the objective is public or if the person wanting to follow it has permission to view the objective.
