OKR: set ambitious, measurable goals

When to use it

• The team works hard but without a shared direction.
• You want to connect day-to-day work to an ambitious goal.
• You need a simple follow-up ritual.

How to do it, step by step

1. Write 1 to 3 ambitious, qualitative, easy-to-grasp objectives.
2. For each, define 2 to 5 measurable key results with a starting value and a target.
3. Make them visible to the whole team.
4. Update progress regularly (weekly or fortnightly).
5. At the end of the cycle, score them, learn and start again.

Example

Objective: “become the reference for small teams”. Key results: grow from 100 to 500 active users; reach a 4.5/5 rating; publish 12 guides.
