Your Personal Dashboard

How your Personal Dashboard surfaces everything that needs your attention across all your Workspaces in one prioritized view.

Your Personal Dashboard

Your Personal Dashboard is the Home view in In Parallel — headed "What needs attention now." It gathers everything waiting on you across every Workspace into one prioritized list, so the first thing you see when you sign in is what to act on next.


What it is

The Personal Dashboard is a view over what you're accountable for, not a to-do app you fill in yourself. It surfaces the items that need a decision or action from you right now — goal-ownership assignments, confirmed Action Items, review requests, and update reviews — drawn from Execution Memory across all the Workspaces you manage or belong to. Entries arrive from the execution loop and clear as you handle them; there's nothing to enter by hand.


How it works

Each item is a priority card. A card tells you:

  • What needs attention — e.g. "You have been assigned as an owner to Goal Scale H2 revenue on the Q1 checkout foundation."

  • Where it came from — a From source: the person or event that raised it.

  • How long it's been waiting — a timestamp; the most recent items show none, and older ones fade to low contrast.

  • What you can doOpen → to jump to the item, to mark it done, or to dismiss it. The whole card is clickable.

Items that aren't tied to a specific Workspace — like a goal-ownership invitation addressed to you — appear under your own name at the top.

Grouping. A Display control switches how cards are organized:

  • By Workspace — cards sit under each Workspace, in the same order as your sidebar. A Workspace with nothing outstanding still appears, showing "No priorities right now" — so a clear board means you're caught up, not that something failed to load.

  • By Priority — cards group under the priority they're linked to, each carrying a Workspace pill so you still see where it belongs.

The left nav gives you Home (this dashboard), My goals, and My meetings, alongside your Managing and Member Workspaces.


Using it effectively

  • Open Home first — at the start of the day or before a recurring meeting — to see what's overdue or waiting on a decision from you.

  • Close loops as you go: Open → to act, ✓ when it's handled, ✕ to clear what's no longer relevant. Items left unresolved are the most common source of dropped follow-through.

  • Trust the empty state. "No priorities right now" across your Workspaces means nothing needs you — there's no separate list to also check.

  • No upkeep required. New cards appear automatically as Action Items are confirmed, ownership is assigned, or reviews are requested.
