Do you understand OKR? Lee Distad says these begin with goals or objectives with clearly defined results. If your goal isn’t clear, how can you expect to measure how well someone achieved it?
Also, remember that voting is open for this year’s rAVe Readers’ Choice Awards, and you can vote until May 24. These are completely nominated and voted upon by readers so go ahead and make sure your voice is heard!
OKRs begin with setting a goal or objective, and clearly defining key results that come from achieving it. Objectives need to be clearly defined, so one may conclude whether or not they were achieved. “Sales growth in Q4” is not clearly defined. “25% sales growth in Q4” is much more specific.
