    Definition

    What is OKR?

    OKR (Objectives and Key Results) is a goal-setting framework where a qualitative Objective states what you want to achieve and measurable Key Results define how you will know you got there.

    OKRs pair ambition with measurement. The Objective is a clear, inspiring statement of intent; the Key Results are two to five metrics that make success unambiguous. If the key results are met, the objective is achieved.

    OKRs are usually set quarterly and cascaded so company goals connect to team and individual goals. They are meant to focus effort and be reviewed often, not filed away and forgotten.

    Atlas Goals let teams define OKRs and link them directly to the projects and tasks that move them, so progress updates itself from real work instead of manual status reports.

    FAQ

    Questions, answered.

    What is the difference between an objective and a key result?
    An objective is the qualitative goal: what you want to achieve. A key result is a measurable outcome that proves you achieved it. Each objective typically has two to five key results.
    How are OKRs different from KPIs?
    KPIs are ongoing metrics that track the health of a process. OKRs are time-boxed goals meant to drive change. A KPI can become a key result inside an OKR.
