Goal Setting

The problem it answers

Goals your team still talks about in month three.

Company and team goals, in whatever format you use, OKRs or not. For companies that want better goals before they want a new system; the OKR Practice is where OKRs get installed as a system.

From our case log. In 15 of the 47 engagements our case log documents since 2015, we left the same thing behind: a short list of priorities, an owner for each, and a blueprint for putting them into practice.

What happens, in sequence

01

Start from the North Star and the strategy.

02

Write each goal in three parts: a bold or operational objective tied to the North Star, the measurable outcomes that show it is met, and the initiatives month by month.

03

Check each goal has an owner, a number that exists today, and room on someone’s plate to carry it.

04

Make progress visible, so everyone can see where each goal stands.
