Description

WHAT IS #OKR?
Objectives and Key Results. #OKR is a framework-- not an #Agile framework-- but a framework for setting and achieving goals. It's a collaborative process, a powerful tool used by many to achieve desired results.

First, defining Objectives in the context of #OKR. Objectives are pretty simple-- it's what needs to be done. They need to be clear, firm, and be something you feel motivated to work towards. The importance of a proper Objective-- one that's both communicated efficiently and created effectively-- is paramount to completing it.

Key Results are the second half of #OKR, and are a little more complicated. They're ways to measure progress in a way that's verifiable and clear-cut. They're steps along the way to meeting an Objective and built with realism in mind, not idealism.

What are the benefits of #OKR? #OKR is fast and simple. It's easy to #implement and it works almost universally, being a flexible way of tracking what needs to be done. It allows for an alignment in an organization-- a clear vision and path to be followed. Due to the simplistic nature of #OKR, goals can be set quickly, as a once-and-done approach that takes little manpower. It promotes transparency and concise communication because everyone knows what to work towards. Finally, it ensures discipline. When someone knows exactly what to meet, clear cut and dry, it can help alleviate procrastination and half-finished work, ensuring accountability in the workplace.
