Definition
OKR (Objectives and Key Results) is a collaborative goal-setting framework used to define ambitious objectives and measurable key results that indicate progress toward those objectives. Objectives are qualitative, inspirational, and time-bound (usually quarterly), while key results are quantitative metrics that signal achievement. OKRs cascade from organizational to team and individual levels, creating alignment and transparency across the organization.
Example
“The product team set an OKR with the objective 'Deliver a world-class mobile experience' and key results including a 4.5+ app store rating and a 20% increase in daily active users.”
