# People

The **People** view shows everyone in your workspace and helps you understand how work is distributed across individuals.

Open it from the left sidebar by clicking **People**.

## What the People view shows

The main People page is a searchable directory of workspace members.

From here you can:

* search for a person by name
* filter people by **team**
* filter people by **insight**, including people with too many active outcomes or overdue check-ins
* switch between **list**, **card**, and **map** views
* review workspace leaderboards for progress, initiative completion, and check-in streaks

Each person entry highlights signals such as:

* active outcomes or key results
* active initiatives
* progress
* confidence

## Open a person's focus page

Click any person to open their individual focus page.

That page gives you a fuller view of how they are working, including:

* their active outcomes and initiatives
* pending check-ins
* goals they contribute to
* their latest standup
* their teams
* their org network, including manager and direct reports

You can also:

* **follow** the person so their updates appear more prominently in your newsfeed
* **share** their view with filters applied
* use the **timeline filter** to focus on a date range

## When to use People

People is useful when you want to understand ownership and capacity across the workspace.

Use it to:

* find the right owner for a goal or initiative
* identify people with overdue check-ins
* spot people carrying too many active goals
* review a manager-reporting structure before reassigning work
* prepare for one-on-ones or team reviews
