You use Snubbas the way everyone does — a Build every morning, a reflection every evening. On top of that you get your team’s dashboard, you set what the team is working toward, and you run the team itself. This guide covers what is different.
Your company’s administrator chose you when they set the team up.
In Snubbas a leader is a role, not a rank: it decides who sees the team’s dashboard and who sets its direction. The administrator picks one for every team, and can change it later.
If you did not have an account yet, you get the same invitation email as everyone else, and the team is yours from the moment you sign in. The steps up to your first conversation are the ones in Getting started.
The same conversation as everyone’s, with two differences.
Before we start talking describes what a leader sees, not what a team member sees: the Builds your people commit to, a weekly view of the team without names, anonymous feedback on your leadership, and your own private reads of each person — never what anyone wrote.
Say yes, and Snubbas asks what kind of team it is and who is on it. Names are enough. It then tells you that it will ask you a couple of questions about the team each day — step 05.
Your home screen. Your own day at the top, your team’s underneath.
At the top, beside the team’s name: Observations (step 06) and Manage (step 07).
Team builds are what your people’s daily Builds should add up to.
Each team build shows on the dashboard with how far along it is. Tap one to update its progress.
Finished ones move to Completed & archived. Keep the open list short: a team building toward nine things is building toward nothing.
The same Define and Reflect as everyone — with your team in them.
Before your own Build, Snubbas asks where the team is heading, what is holding it back, which person needs your attention today, and where your time would make the biggest difference.
After your own reflection, it asks whether that time paid off, whether the bottleneck moved, how it went with that person, and what the team learned.
On Fridays it also asks how the people you choose are doing, and whether the team builds have moved.
Your read of how someone is doing, written down while it is fresh.
Your note, under Feedback & Recognition in their menu. Write it to them.
The rating. It is your read as their leader, never a Snubbas score, and nobody on the team can see it.
Observations at the top of the dashboard lists what you have recorded for each person, over the last 30 days, 90 days or 6 months.
Manage on the dashboard is where the team itself is kept up to date.
Change it under Team name and tap Save. Under it are the Members: you are tagged Manager, and a tick shows who has finished onboarding.
Someone without an account shows as Pending. Tap Invite beside them and confirm Send invitation: that creates their account and emails them a link to activate it. Adding someone never contacts them on its own.
Tap the person, then Remove from team. They stop appearing on the dashboard; their own account, Builds and history are kept. The same sheet lets you correct their name and role, and has Send password reset for someone who is locked out.
Tell the team what changed, without another meeting.
Snubbas also knows about it, so it can bring it up when it matters to someone’s Build.
Your team will ask. Tell them on day one — it lands much better from you than discovered later.
Plus your own observations, which only you can rate.
That boundary is what keeps the conversations honest.
Ticks are kept in this browser only.
No. Nobody can — not you, not the company administrator. You see the Build each person commits to and how their days land, and anonymous feedback drawn from the team’s conversations as a whole.
The person you wrote about sees your note, under Feedback & Recognition. Your rating of how consistently they get things done is never shown to them, or to anyone else on the team.
They show as Pending. Open Manage, and tap Invite beside them: that creates their account and emails them a link. Adding someone never contacts them on its own.
Not yourself. Changing who leads a team is done by the company administrator, from the team’s settings. You stay on the team as a member.
Your home screen lists them under Choose a team. Open one, and Switch team under its name takes you to the others. Your own Build and points are the same across all of them.
Because you lead a team, Snubbas asks a couple of questions about it each day — where the team is heading, what is holding it back, and where your attention would make the most difference — before it helps you with your own Build.
Yes: Manage → tap the person → Remove from team. They stop appearing on the dashboard; their account, Builds and history are kept. Removing them from the company altogether is the administrator’s job.
Company builds are set by the administrator and show on every team’s dashboard, tagged Company. Team builds are yours: what this team is working toward. Both are what your people’s daily Builds should add up to.
We would rather answer it than have you guess.
