Roles & Permissions ​

EOS Hub uses a two-layer permission system: System Roles control global access, while Team Roles control what a user can do within a specific team.

System Roles ​

System roles are assigned at the user level and apply across the entire application.

RoleDescription
SUPERADMINFull access to everything: all teams, all data, admin panel
USERStandard user; access determined by team memberships

SUPERADMIN ​

A SUPERADMIN can:

  • View and manage all teams, regardless of membership
  • Access the admin panel
  • Create and delete users
  • Change system roles
  • Modify any team's data

WARNING

Grant SUPERADMIN access sparingly. In most organizations, only one or two people need this level of access.

USER ​

A USER can only access teams they have been added to as a member. Their capabilities within each team are determined by their team role.

Team Roles ​

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

RoleDescription
OWNERFull control of the team
ADMINCan manage team data and members
MEMBERCan contribute to meetings, update own data
VIEWERRead-only access to team data

OWNER ​

The team Owner has full control over the team, including the ability to delete it. Every team must have at least one Owner.

ADMIN ​

Admins can manage team data, add or remove members, and configure team settings. They cannot delete the team.

MEMBER ​

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

How Roles Interact ​

Consider a user who is:

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

This user can fully manage the Sales team (add members, edit V/TO, delete the team) but can only participate as a regular contributor in the Leadership team.

A SUPERADMIN, regardless of team roles, can access and modify everything.

Managing Roles ​

Changing System Roles ​

System roles can only be changed by a SUPERADMIN:

  1. Navigate to Admin > Users.
  2. Find the user.
  3. Click Edit.
  4. Change the System Role dropdown.

Changing Team Roles ​

Team roles are managed by team Owners and Admins:

  1. Navigate to Admin > Teams.
  2. Select the team.
  3. Find the member in the member list.
  4. Change their role using the dropdown.

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.
