Make someone a Team Admin or team owner

Change a person's role in a team, or hand the team to a new owner.

Last updated Nov 10, 2026

admin only
Open in app
Settings, Teams: the teams table with Team Name, Owner, Members and Created, and the Create team button.

Team roles are separate from org roles. They set what someone can do with the team's goals.

Team Member
Can create goals for the team and edit goals they own.
Team Admin
Can also edit and delete the team's goals and its members' goals.
Team Owner
The team's lead. Always listed on the team, and a Team Admin too.

Who can do this: anyone who can manage the team, Owners and Admins by default. See Team roles.

Change a team role #

  1. Open Settings. Under Workspace, click Teams, then the team's name.
  2. On the person's row, click their team role pill.
  3. Pick Team Member or Team Admin. To hand over the team, pick Team Owner and click Transfer ownership.
A team's page with a member's role pill open: Team Owner, Team Member and Team Admin.
Success check
The pill shows the new role.

A new owner can be someone who hasn't signed in yet. The old owner stays a Team Admin only if they were already on the team.
