Traditional performance tracking falls short

Turn improved visibility into career advancement
Discover how you can use Unlimited Subitems to track your key achievements throughout the year, making it easy to make a case for that key promotion or career move in your next performance review.
It's been a busy year. You've consistently delivered projects ahead of schedule, supported your teammates across departments, and even led up a successful product launch. Yet, when performance review season comes around, your manager seems to have forgotten half of your achievements. Sound familiar?
That's because it's all too common. According to a report by Work Human, a third of workers feel invisible at work. Even more concerning, 27 percent say they've felt completely ignored at times, with valuable soft skills like curiosity and empathy going unnoticed and unappreciated.
The reality is that we all need to advocate for ourselves more and make our valuable work visible to others—especially our managers!
It takes courage to put yourself out there, but if you're already using monday.com to manage your work, this post will show how you can use our app, Unlimited Subitems, to boost your visibility and secure your next well-deserved promotion.
Sounds good? Let's get started.
Traditional performance tracking falls short
Got a performance review coming up? Now's your chance to highlight all the amazing things you've achieved over the past year.
But if you're like most people (myself included!), it can be a real struggle to remember exactly what you've achieved and when. You know you definitely went above and beyond, but when exactly? You've honed your skills and pushed yourself outside your comfort zone, but which tasks helped you get there?
Even if you're super organised and have jotted down and tracked your achievements along the way in a Google Doc or your notes app, it's easy for some to slip through the cracks. And if you don't remember your achievements, you can't expect your manager to either.
Fortunately, this is where Unlimited Subitems for monday.com comes to the rescue!
How Unlimited Subitems transforms your visibility at work
With Unlimited Subitems for monday.com, you can keep track of all your great work every day, making your contributions and progress visible to everyone.
Let's take a look at how it can help you build a compelling case for your next promotion, pay rise, or career move:
1. Showcase your big-picture contribution and all the wins that got you there
Keeping track of all your projects is one thing, but showing all the layers of tasks that go into moving them forward is quite another. Unlimited Subitems makes this easy by showcasing all your contributions in exquisite detail by allowing you to create multiple layers of subitems in each monday.com item, ensuring you never miss a detail.
No need to sift through your notes trying to jog your memory of what you did and when, or connect the dots across different tasks and projects. When it comes to your performance review, it's all right there. So, when it's time for that all-important performance review, you'll be able to show your impact clearly.
2. Highlight your teamwork skills
It's not always easy to show your manager how much of a team player you are when you work with many different colleagues across the globe. It's impossible for them to be part of every call you join or be aware of all your daily interactions.
By tracking everything with Unlimited Subitems, you can show all the moving parts of your project.
You can include who has worked on what, what items have been assigned to your team members, and how you have worked together to achieve your goals. When it comes to performance reviews, you can easily unfold your layers of subitems and clearly show how you were involved and made an impact at every stage of your project.
The newfound visibility into your collaboration will make it easy to show the key role you played in coordinating efforts to push that important project over the line.
3. Show off your problem-solving and time-management skills
As Unlimited Subitems details all the different tasks that have gone into a project, you can use the app to document the challenges you faced and what you did to overcome them at each stage.
You can also use it to show how you managed competing priorities and different tasks to complete your project on time by creating columns for variables like priority levels and due date.
4. Demonstrate your ability to push beyond your comfort zone
You can use Unlimited Subitems to showcase all the different tasks you've taken on beyond your core responsibilities.
This highlights your willingness and ability to manage complex projects, adapt to new work, and perform under pressure. These are all great skills for advancing your career, but it can be hard to visualise how you manage an increasing workload in traditional goal-tracking tools or note-taking apps.
In Unlimited Subitems, you'll have a one-stop overview where you can see all of your projects at once, the dates you worked on them, and the number of individual tasks within each one—clear evidence of how you went above and beyond to hit your targets.
Turn improved visibility into career advancement with Unlimited Subitems for monday.com
With Unlimited Subitems, preparing for your next annual performance review will be a breeze. You can:
- Start documenting your wins, both big and small.
- Easily see project history and the challenges you overcame within those projects.
- Loop in team members who you collaborated with.
No more struggling to remember what you achieved. All the evidence you need to make your case will be right there in one place, so you can talk through it all with confidence.
