Everything you need to implement Objectives and Key Results (OKRs)
effectively
Objectives and Key Results is the first full-fledged reference guide
on Objectives and Key Results, a critical thinking framework designed to
help organizations create value through focus, alignment, and better
communication. Written by two leading OKRs consultants and researchers,
this book provides a one-stop resource for organizations looking to
quantify qualitative goals and ensure each team focuses their efforts to
make measureable progress on their most important goals. You'll learn
how OKRs came to be and how leading companies use them every day to help
teams and employees stretch their thinking about what's possible, build
their goal-setting muscles and achieve results that reflect their full
potential. From the basic framework to a detailed dissection of best
practices, this informative guide walks you through real-world
implementations to help you get the most out of OKRs.
OKRs help employees work together, focus effort, and drive the
organization forward. Key results are used to define what it means to
achieve broad, qualitative goals, and imperatives like "do it better"
are transformed into clear, measureable markers. From the framework's
inception in the 1980s to its popularity in today's hyper-competitive
environment, OKRs make work more engaging and feature frequent feedback
cycles that enable workers to see the progress they make at work each
and every day. This book shows you everything you need to know to
implement OKRs effectively.
