HSOC Progress Snapshot
RYG = Red / Yellow / Green. Green means on track. Yellow means risk. Red means not on track and requires a system change.
Cascading Goals (Whole Picture)
Business goals → team-controlled levers → visible evidence.
HSOC Business Goals
- Increase participants who secure real work (paid or unpaid).
- Increase participants who produce verifiable professional artifacts.
- Increase proficiency and independence over time.
- Increase external trust (partners, referrals, repeat demand).
Team-Controlled Levers
- Work produced
- Work shared publicly or semi-publicly
- Proficiency growth (less supervision)
- Contribution to others
- External work engagement
Targets by Time in Program
3 Months
- 12 completed artifacts
- 1 external share
- 1 contribution to another fellow
- Some guidance, not step-by-step
6 Months
- 24 artifacts (larger scope)
- 3+ external shares
- 2+ contributions
- Minimal supervision
12 Months
- 36–38 substantial artifacts
- Ongoing professional presence
- Regular support of others
- Mostly independent decisions
Fellows — Sample Progress Snapshot
Invented names. This is what “real data” looks like.
| Fellow | Time | Focus | Work Produced | Work Shared | Proficiency | Contribution | External Work |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Jamal R. | 3 mo | SOC | 1 partial | None | Needs guidance | None | No outreach |
| Nina L. | 3 mo | GRC | 12 artifacts | Portfolio | Independent | 1 review | Applied |
| Carlos M. | 6 mo | Cloud | 8 artifacts | None | Partial independence | None | None |
| Aisha T. | 6 mo | GRC | 12 artifacts | Apps + LinkedIn | Minimal supervision | Regular support | Volunteer role |
| Devin K. | 12 mo | Mixed | 4 artifacts | None | Seeks approval | Rare | No sustained work |
The system is successfully engaging participants and supporting learning. The next phase is shifting emphasis from participation to completed, shareable outputs. Small adjustments to how work is surfaced and tracked should unlock faster progress without increasing workload.
What Information Goes Into the Snapshot
For each fellow, the snapshot shows:
Time in program
Work produced (artifacts + descriptions)
Work shared (where/how)
Proficiency level (supervision needed)
Contribution to others
External work (outside HSOC)
R/Y/G status per metric
None of this should require narrative writing every week.
Who Documents What (Very Clear Roles)
1. Fellow (Primary Owner)
What they do:
Upload links to their work
Add short descriptors (1–2 lines max)
Keep their own evidence current
What they do NOT do:
Assign their own R/Y/G
Write self-evaluations
Justify lack of progress
Rule:
If the fellow didn’t link it, it doesn’t exist.
2. Facilitator / ESOC (Reviewer, Not Recorder)
What they do:
Review evidence on a cadence (weekly or biweekly)
Assign R/Y/G based on defined criteria
Flag risks early
What they do NOT do:
Chase artifacts
Rewrite people’s work
Interpret intentions
3. Program Lead / Owner (Oversight)
What they do:
Look at the snapshot
Ask system-level questions
Decide where structure needs to change
They should never be digging for raw data.
