Manage the process and measure the result of OKR

Requirements

This tutorial requires the installation of the following applications/modules:

Objectives and Key results confirmation

Before the beginning of each quarter or each year, OKR managers will come up with the Objectives and Key results of the upcoming period. After that, the OKR manager needs to confirm all the OKR nodes before announcing the OKR plan to the rest of the company and start working on it.

Objectives confirmation

Navigate to OKR > OKR Node, select the OKR node that you want to validate then press Confirm.

Objectives confirmation

Once the objective is confirmed, you no longer can edit the following information: Year, Quarter, Title, Description, and Target.

Key results confirmation

The OKR owners navigate to the OKR node assigned to them and confirm it.

Evaluate and record key results

During the OKR implementation, owners of each OKR need to update the progress periodically by recording a score for each OKR node:

  • Use the filter and grouping tool to search and navigate to the assigned OKR node.

  • Update a score (scale from 0 to 1) to the Score field.

  • Press Save button.

    Update score to each OKR node

The score, progress, and result of this key result will be calculated automatically and reflected on the higher objectives, using the following fomula:

Objectives scoring formula

Note

Example: Objective A has three Key results:

  • Key results B: Weight 30%, Score 0.84;

  • Key results C: Weight 30%, Score 0.80;

  • Key results D: Weight 40%, Score 0.90;

=> Score of Objective A = [(0.84 * 30) + (0.80 * 30) + (0.90 * 40)]/100 = 0.85.

OKR owners can note all the reasons and problems that happened with each objective in the chatterbox. By doing so, OKR managers and company executives can quickly have an overview of the current OKR implementation status and take adequate actions.

To verify the results reported by OKR owners, managers can access the tasks tied to OKRs to see the actual progress of these tasks in detail.

Tracking OKR progress on the main dashboard

You can track the OKR progress by navigating to the OKR Node list. From here, you can see the OKR nodes list with information such as Time frame, Target, Progress, Quantity of Key Results, Pass/Failed, etc.
