Google's OKR

Summary of a Business Insider article -

Google uses a organizational system called Objectives and Key Results, or OKRs

The OKR system came from Intel.

First, you set up an Objective. Then you set up a number of "Key Results" that are quantifiable that will help you hit your objective.

Your objectives should be definitive and measurable. Don't say, for instance, I want to make my website prettier. Say you want to make your website 30% faster. Or you want to increase engagement by 15%.

Google has OKRs at a company level, at a team level, at a managerial level, and at a personal level. They all work together to keep the company on track.

At Google, all OKRs are public from Larry Page on down.

OKRs are not used by management to determine promotions. But they can be used by employees to keep an eye on what they've accomplished.
