Summing Multiple Visual Slicers

I'm not sure this is possible and am open to other solutions.......but I am trying to make a report that allows management to select how many people will work on each of our programs. I have how each of those decisions will affect the goals of each team. (Example: If you put 3 people on Program A, you will meet all goals but if you drop it to 2 people, you will only hit 2 of 3 goals.) Because of this, I have to have all the program's data on different tabs and have a different slicer for each program (as the number of employees on one program will not effect the goals of a different program.) What I need to accomplish (and can't figure out how) is to notify management when they have "placed" all employees with a program. Ideally, I want to just sum the number selected on each of my slicers and have something turn green when they all sum to 52 employees. But I can't find a way to sum the number selected in a slicer. Again, I'm open to any solution that will quickly show they have accounted for all employees without counting too many. Thanks!

You should be able to use MAX or SELECTEDVALUE to get the number out of each slicer.
