Organization OKRs are a performance handling framework planned to promote, track, and communicate wider organizational objectives & results. The framework is intended to align and be transparent with the individual, team & business objectives in a measurable method. To establish organization OKRs, you should be the leader or owner of an organization.
Navigate to the Organization OKRs option in the Main Menu. Before establishing your yearly OKRs, you can use any pre-defined OKR template by tapping on "Choose Templates" as this is optional for you. Alternatively, you can manually enter your OKRs by clicking on "Add Organization OKR".
To establish your Objective, you should choose your Objective Type initially. To choose from, you have two options Committed or Aspirational. If you select Committed, the OKRs should be completed for sure. Committed OKRs should be always measured as 1.0 to consider it as accomplished or they should be less than 1.0 to consider it as missed.
If you choose Aspirational, the OKRs should be more aspiring to perform something new or to get better from their current status. Aspirational OKRs are measured between 0 and 1.0 as well, but the status is considered as missed if the scale measurement is from 0 to 0.3, considered as partially achieved if the measurement is from 0.4 to 0.6, and considered as fully achieved if the measurement is from 0.7 to 1.0.
Then enter your Objective Statement in the given field and select your Due Date. When you click on the calendar, the Set Due Date window will open immediately with the Current Quarter, Next Quarter, and Current Year options. Then, set the due date and tap on "Save" to save your entered objective.
Now your organization's Objective has been added. Here you can determine its priority by clicking on the "Set Priority" option and selecting "P1" for High Priority, "P2" for Medium Priority, and "P3" for Low Priority. Include Owners & Collaborators by tapping on the "Add Owner" option. Also, you can tap on the "Actions" icon to Edit, Add New KR, Archive, Close Out, and Delete your added Objective.
To establish your yearly Key Results for your added Objective in four quarters (Q1, Q2, Q3 & Q4) tap on "Add Key Results" similar to adding Objectives.
For your added KRs, you'll have an additional option Set Metrics to set up desirable metrics for the respective KRs employing customized metric options. When clicking on "Set Metrics", the Add Metrics window will appear on your screen. Here you can enter Quantitative (%, #, and $) or Custom metric and then save the applied metric. If you don’t want to set any metrics, select the "No Metrics" option and save.
In the added KRs, you can tap on the "Actions" icon to Edit, Archive, Close Out, and Delete them as well. If you want to establish another Objective, click on "Add Objective" available below the added OKRs.
Here, you can view the Objectives and Key Results set with priority, owner, and metrics.
Quarterly Objectives & Key Results assure that achievements are on track to fulfill the organization's annual objectives while letting employees concentrate on the quarter to lead to those goals. Organizations employ quarterly OKRs to determine their schemes and coordinate individual contributors with high-level ideas. A business requires to determine its strategies at the top level and make employees realize how their attempts support these ideas.
Some of the major benefits that quarterly planning gets from OKRs are Larger Goal Flexibility, New Weekly Information, and Visible Results. You may observe that responsibility enhances its value by aligning every individual function with organizational objectives over time. Quarterly OKRs let employees find out their daily functions finally fit into directing the organization toward particular long-time objectives.
In this application, when you are in the middle of the last quarter Q4, it is better to enable OKRs 15 days before the next quarter Q1 starts and disable OKRs 15 days after Q1 started. You can edit the OKRs within the current quarter but not in the previous or upcoming quarters.
