GOALS- add NEW work during goal creation

Issue: ux for entering goals is backwards from how goal setting really happens.

When doing strategic planning, we begin with goals and then break the goal down to all of its component milestone /steps to completion. We should be able to do exactly that in Asana.

However, when entering goals into Asana, the experience requires that the work already exist to link to.

We should be able to create new tasks, milestones, and projects as part of the goal creation process rather than having to navigate away from goal creation to go create a task/milestone/project to then come back to the goal to link. It’s maddening because it’s is backwards.

Maybe there are also a few other ideas that can help you use goals in Asana. Check them, and if you consider them helpful, please upvote. Thank you!

  1. Goals bug / suggestion - Asana add-ons doesn’t recognize goals link
  2. Duplicating Goals and Sub-Goals
  3. Custom fields in Goals overview page
  4. “Add to Goals” feature in projects & tasks
