Target work can be a challenge, and Yesbox would like to inspire easier goal work by sharing thoughts about OKR (Objectives and Key Results). OKR is a smart method that helps create clear goals and focus on results.
OKR a smart method.
🤜 Why is it important to work with goal?
Goals are critical to creating commitment within an organization and to avoid different groups pulling in different directions. Instead of initially delving into how specific activities should be carried out, it is significantly more important to start by establishing clear and distinct goals. These goals provide a direction to follow and can be linked to an overall vision, the company's values or a strategy that together creates a shared vision of the future.
Goals and activities are two important components for creating efficiency and focus, but it is of great importance to understand that the activities come later in the process.
👍 How to work with goals / OKRs
A central idea behind OKR is to work in shorter time cycles, often with quarterly goals. Only in follow-up calls or other discussions are the activities required to reach the goals defined. It is of the utmost importance to choose the most central goals and the activities that really lead to success. Having too many goals and activities can lead to frustration and split energy.
OKR is a smart way of working.
OKR is a smart method for working with goals. By identifying specific problems or challenges, one can transform them into engaging overarching goals, called “Objectives.” Then you create 2-3 measurable and time-bound key results, or "Key Results," which help to reach the overall goal. It is important to formulate the goals in a way that is understandable and engaging for every individual within the organization.
💪 In summary, when you want to work on goals and OKRs:
- Translate into a clear and engaging overall objective (Objective), which acts as a guide for the key results that need to be achieved.
- Create 2-3 key results that are measurable and time-bound that will help achieve the overall goal.
- Formulate the goals in a way that is both understandable and engaging for each individual.
- In follow-up calls and discussions about the goals, create activities that support the goals. Focus on the most central goals and activities to avoid overload.
This process can help organizations achieve their goals more effectively and create a shared vision for the future.
