We’re getting ready to set our Q3 company OKRs. This morning we discussed 7 rules we’re following that describes our current OKR process.

Reminder: for something to be a company OKR

  1. Describable and scopeable (is it ‘baked’?)
  2. Sized based on internal or external data. Impact $ can be annualized or for Q3
  3. Threshold should be material contribution (e.g. 5% revenue uplift)
  4. Work should require cross functional support from scarce resources: tech, data, & senior leadership time
  5. Co-leads should be appointed, with at least one from the global leaders team
  6. Commitment is a scoping doc & timeline, weekly meeting and weekly reporting
  7. Requirements for a functional OKR are much more relaxed, although these can also be lightly cross functional. Rigor around opportunity sizing and scoping is important.
