Objectives and Key Results

Acronym : OKR

OKRs are a goal-setting method that pairs an ambitious qualitative objective with three or four measurable key results used to judge whether it has been achieved.

Why it matters

Unlike standalone KPIs, OKRs explicitly connect every team to the company's overall strategy, with a short review cycle (often quarterly).

Concrete example

The objective "Improve platform reliability" is broken down into measurable key results: uptime, average incident resolution time, number of critical incidents.
