In the Add Goal to Employees task, managers can cascade or assign goals to groups of workers.

In Workday Talent & Performance, when you want to assign goalsto a group of employees (such as everyone in a talent pool), you must use the “Add Goal To Employees” task. Here’s why: Create Goal for Worker This task is specific to one worker at a time. It would not allow you to mass-assign goals to multiple workers. Suitable when you want to add a goal for an individual employee. Manage Organization Goals Used to define organization-wide goals(e.g., company objectives). These can be cascaded, but they are not tied to an action that assigns two goals directly to all members of a talent pool. Maintain Goals Setup This is for configuring goal settings (e.g., categories, weights, behaviors) at the tenant level. It doesn’t execute the action of assigning goals to workers. Add Goal To Employees Specifically designed for mass goal assignment. You can select multiple employees (for example, all 10 members of your talent pool) and assign the same goals in a single event. This is the only option that fulfills the requirement of assigning two self-development goals to all members in one step. Reference Talent &Performance Study Guide topics: Goal Management: Covers the difference between worker-specific vs. mass goal actions. Talent Pools: Workday documentation explains that pools are often used for succession planning and development, and “Add Goal to Employees” is the correct bulk action for assigning development activities. External Training Reference: ERP Cloud Training notes that “The Add Goal To Employees task allows administrators to assign multiple goals across groups such as talent pools or organizations, enabling faster alignment with development plans.”【web source on Talent & Performance training】 Workday Pro Talent & Performance Flashcards: Confirm that the correct way to mass assign goals is via Add Goal To Employees task, not Manage Organization Goals (which is only for defining org-level goals).

In Workday, Private Feedback is visible only to the feedback recipient.

Confidential Feedback is visible to both the recipient and their manager.
Anonymous Feedback hides the identity of the feedback giver but may still be visible to managers or
admins depending on configuration.
Public Feedback is broadly visible acrossthe organization or workgroup.
Therefore, the only feedback type that ensures visibility only to the recipient is Private Feedback.
Reference:
Workday Talent & Performance study material on feedback types.
Workday Pro Talent & Performance training notes: “Private feedback is restricted to the recipient
alone; confidential feedback includes the manager, while public feedback is visible more broadly.”

Static Talent Pools allow manual addition and removal of members.
Private means the pool is only visible to the creator and not shared with others.
Therefore, a Private Static Talent Pool lets talent partners create their own pools, manage membership manually, and keep them unshared.
Incorrect options:
Dynamic Pools → membership is controlled by saved searches, not manual additions.
Restricted Pools → visibility is limited to certain groups but still shared, not completely private.
