How managers can write effective Objective and Key Results (OKRs)

Writing effective OKRs (Objectives and Key Results) is a critical skill for any manager. OKRs help to provide clear direction, focus team efforts, and measure progress. Checking in with managers and providing training for writing effective OKRs empowers team leaders to keep direct reports focused on company goals.

A few tips that can help managers sharpen their skills in writing effective OKRs include:

1. Keep the Objective Broad: Start by writing an Objective that is broad enough to encompass the desired outcome, but specific enough to provide direction. Be sure to avoid subjectivity or ambiguity.

2. Establish Clear Key Results: Establishing clear Key Results is essential for effective OKRs. Each key result should be specific, measurable, and achievable.

3. Set Time-Bound Goals: Setting a timeline for each OKR helps ensure that the team is focused on achieving the goal. This helps to ensure that the team is working towards a common goal, and that progress is being made.

4. Hold Regular Check-ins: Regular check-ins help to ensure that the team is on track and making progress towards the goal. Check-ins should be frequent enough to ensure progress, but not so frequent that they become a distraction.

5. Make Adjustments as Necessary: As the team works towards the OKR, it's important to be open to making adjustments as necessary. If the team is struggling to reach the goal, consider revising the OKR to make it more achievable.
