How to draw a half and half colored circle?
Something like this?
\documentclass[12pt,a4paper]{memoir}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage{tikz,float}
\usepackage{tabularx}
\usepackage{xparse}
\NewDocumentCommand{\statcirc}{ O{#2} m }{%
\begin{tikzpicture}
\fill[#2] (0,0) circle (1.0ex); % Fill circle with base colour (arg#2)
\fill[#1] (0,0) -- (180:1ex) arc (180:0:1ex) -- cycle; % Fill a half circle filled with second colour (arg#1), if specified
\end{tikzpicture}
}
\begin{document}
\begin{table}[H]
\setlength\extrarowheight{2mm}
\centering
\begin{tabularx}{\textwidth}{| X | X | l | l | c | X |}
\hline
\textbf{{Strategy}} & \textbf{{Action}} & \textbf{{Owner}} & \textbf{{Due}} & \textbf{{Status}} & \textbf{{Outcome}} \\ \hline
Aim 1 & what needs to be done & who & when & \statcirc{green} & What is end product \\ \hline
Aim 2 & what needs to be done & who & when & \statcirc[orange]{green} & What is end product \\ \hline

If you want to have a half circle, provide the second colour as an optional argument. This second colour will appear at the top.
\statcircle[top colour]{bottom colour}
A little note on the TikZ code:
\fill[#1] (0,0) -- (180:1ex) arc (180:0:1ex) -- cycle;
\fill[#1]: create a fill shape with the colour specified(0,0) -- (180:1ex): 'draw' the shape path from (0,0) to the point specified in polar coordinates, 180 degrees (measured clockwise from positive x-axis) and radius 1ex.arc (180:0:1ex): continue 'drawing' the shape path as a circular arc, with fixed radius 1ex, starting angle 180 degrees, end angle 0 degrees. this creates the half circle.-- cycle;: complete the loop back to origin
With that in mind, if you want a circle split vertically, you just need to change the starting and end angle during the drawing of the arc. As an example:
\fill[#1] (0,0) -- (90:1ex) arc (90:270:1ex) -- cycle; gives you:
\fill[#1] (0,0) -- (45:1ex) arc (45:215:1ex) -- cycle; gives you:
One more (and simple) example with use of shapes.geometry packages :-)

Addendum: For half circle rotated for arbitrary angle:

\node [semicircle, fill=#2,

We, at work, also use the quarter semaphores.
It's easy to do with tkz-euclide package.
I have created a pic with three args: background color, grade (90/180/270) of the angle of the sector which has to be colored in another way, another color. If the angle is = 0 (that is, there is only one color) the third argument is ignored.
