In some cases, a team member may report to or work closely with more than one manager. The multiple manager feature in uMap allows organizations to assign secondary managers to a team member’s profile. This ensures all relevant leaders have visibility into that individual’s insights, goals, and development progress, creating alignment and supporting meaningful coaching conversations.


Assign Secondary Managers

Admins can assign one or more secondary managers to any user across the organization.

Step 1: Go to the Admin Tab

Under the Admin tab, navigate to the Users tab. From here, select the edit icon (pencil icon) next to the name of the individual you’d like to add a secondary manager to.


Step 2: Add a Secondary Manager

On the Edit User page, scroll down to the field titled Secondary Manager.
You can assign multiple secondary managers to a user by using the dropdown field and typing in the name of the manager you’d like to add.


Step 3: Choose Conversation Setting

Check the box to automatically include the secondary manager in all future coaching conversations. If this box remains unchecked, the secondary manager will not be included in conversations unless manually added by the primary manager.


Step 4: Save Updates

Click Save Updates to confirm and apply your changes.
