Roles & Permissions ​

EOS Hub uses three layers of roles: the system role decides who operates the platform, the organization role controls what a person can do in an organization, and the team role controls what a person can do within a specific team.

System Roles ​

System roles are assigned at the account level and apply across the entire installation.

RoleShown asDescription
SUPERADMINPlatform adminThe platform operator: manages organizations, accounts, and platform-wide AI settings
USERUserStandard account; access determined by organization and team memberships

Platform Operator (SUPERADMIN) ​

A SUPERADMIN can:

  • Open Platform administration (/platform)
  • Create organizations together with their first Owner
  • Suspend and resume organizations
  • See all accounts on the platform
  • Configure AI providers and prompts for the whole platform

WARNING

The platform operator has no automatic access to customer data. A SUPERADMIN sees an organization's teams only if they are also a member of that organization -- and then only with the access their organization role gives them.

Organization Roles ​

Organization roles are assigned per organization. A person can have different roles in different organizations.

INFO

An organization must always keep at least one Owner. See User Management for more on each organization role.

Team Roles ​

Team roles are assigned per team. A person can have different roles in different teams.

Organization Owners, Admins, and Implementers act at least as team Admin in every team of their organization, whether or not they are listed as team members.

Implementers have the ADMIN column's rights, except that they do not rate meetings. See User Management for the full list.

Company vision

The Vision side of the V/TO -- Core Values, Core Focus, 10-Year Target, Marketing Strategy, and 3-Year Picture -- is one per organization and shared by all teams, so its rights do not follow the team matrix. It is edited by organization Owners and Admins, Implementers, and the Admins and Owners of a leadership team. Every other member of the organization can read it. Nobody can edit it while the organization is suspended.

Company Accountability Chart

When the organization keeps one Accountability Chart for the whole company, it is edited by the same people as the company vision, not by the team matrix.

OWNER ​

The team Owner has full control over the team's data.

ADMIN ​

Admins manage the team's EOS tools: measurables, Rocks, meetings, the V/TO, and the Accountability Chart. They can delete items.

MEMBER ​

Members are active participants. They can create and update To-Dos and Issues, update their own Rocks, participate in and rate meetings, and enter Scorecard values.

VIEWER ​

Viewers have read-only access. They can see the dashboard, Scorecard, Rocks, and other data, but cannot modify anything. This role is useful for stakeholders who need visibility without participation.

INFO

Creating, renaming, and deleting teams and managing team members is an organization task -- it is done by organization Owners and Admins in Organization settings, not by the team roles.

How Roles Interact ​

Consider a person who is:

  • USER system role
  • MEMBER of the organization
  • OWNER of the Sales team
  • MEMBER of the Leadership team

This person can fully manage the Sales team's data (measurables, Rocks, meetings, V/TO) but can only participate as a regular contributor in the Leadership team, and does not see the organization's other teams.

If the same person were an organization ADMIN, they would see every team of the organization and act at least as team Admin in each of them.

Managing Roles ​

Changing Organization Roles ​

Organization roles are managed by organization Owners and Admins:

  1. Navigate to Organization settings > Members.
  2. Find the person.
  3. Open the row menu (⋯) and choose Change role.

Only Owners can grant or revoke the Owner and Admin roles.

Changing Team Roles ​

Team roles are managed by organization Owners and Admins:

  1. Navigate to Organization settings > Teams.
  2. Find the team's card.
  3. Find the member in the member list.
  4. Change their role using the role selector.

TIP

When onboarding a new leadership team member, add them as a MEMBER first. Promote to ADMIN or OWNER after they are comfortable with the platform.
