exIQtive has two independent ways of describing people: personas, which describe how someone works day to day, and account roles, which describe administrative access to the account. This page covers both.

​
Employees with access

Employees who have access to exIQtive see the Your Stuff menu, which can include:
  • As Employee
  • As a Coach
  • As an Architect
Which views you see depends on the badges you currently hold.

​
Employee

As Employee is your personal readiness workspace. It shows:
  • What you’re responsible for
  • How ready you are to perform your work
  • What to prepare next
  • Which Coaches can inspect you
  • What badge level you currently hold

​
Your readiness

At the top of the page is your overall readiness percentage, a real-time indicator of how prepared you are across all your responsibilities.

​
Your responsibilities

Your responsibilities are listed in priority order, from highest impact on your readiness to lowest. Each one shows:
  • The responsibility you’re accountable for
  • Your current badge level
  • Your inspection progress
  • A Prepare button to help you get ready for the next level

​
Coach

A Coach holds current Coach badges and can inspect employees on those responsibilities. Coaches see the employees they’re authorized to coach under Your Stuff → As a Coach. See What is a Coach? for the full role definition.
A Coach can inspect only employees who don’t already hold a Coach or Architect badge for the same responsibility.
Each responsibility should ideally be supported by at least two Coaches. A common way to get there is for the Architect to also serve as a Coach and train at least one additional Coach.

​
Architect

An Architect is the subject matter expert for a responsibility. Architects see the responsibilities they manage under Your Stuff → As an Architect. See What is an Architect? for the full role definition.

​
Common questions

You see responsibilities only after you’re assigned to a position that has roles or responsibilities attached.
Your position, role, or responsibilities were updated. New responsibilities are added automatically when your position changes.
They’re ordered by how much improving each one would increase your overall readiness. The ones at the top have the biggest impact.
It shows how prepared you are across all your assigned responsibilities, based on your inspection progress and badge levels.
Novice means you’re just starting this responsibility and haven’t yet completed inspections for a higher badge level.
Prepare opens your learning materials, inspection checklists, and the steps required to move to your next badge level.
Only Coaches and Architects for that responsibility can inspect you.
You may need to complete preparation steps or checkpoints before inspections become available.
Readiness changes when inspections are completed, responsibilities are added or removed, or badge levels are updated.
Your badge level updates, your readiness increases, and your growth path moves to the next level.
No. Responsibilities are assigned automatically through your position. Contact your manager or administrator if something looks wrong.
Usually because your responsibilities are newly assigned and you haven’t started preparation or inspections yet.

​
Account roles

The personas above describe how someone works. Account roles describe administrative access to the account itself. The two are independent. See Account roles and permissions for the full comparison.

​
Owner

The Owner created the account or received ownership by transfer. Every account has exactly one Owner, and only the Owner can transfer ownership. See What is an Account Owner?

​
Co-Owner

A Co-Owner has full administrative access, including Settings and user management, but can’t transfer ownership. An account can have multiple Co-Owners. See What is a Co-Owner?

​
Administrator

An Administrator can access and operate all day-to-day modules (Organization, Readiness, All Tasks, and more) but can’t access Settings or manage account users. See What is an Administrator?
