OKRS STAND FOR… 
Objective & 
Key Results
OKRs are how we will set 
quarterly objective 
…they focus actions and drive 
results
Objective = 
What 
YouWant to 
Achieve
Objective 
Example 
Increase sales by 10% before 
the end of next quarter
GOOD OBJECTIVES ARE…
CLEAR 
July 2012 9
ambitious 
“60% of impossible is better than 
100% of achievable.” 
Oct-14 10
Time bound 
You need to be able to show results by 
the end of the next quarter. 
July 2012 11
Actionable 
(something you can being working on in the next quarter) 
July 2012 12
≤ 5 
5 Objectives is the most 
that each of us should be 
working on at any one time. 
July 2012 13
Key Result = 
How you know 
you’ve 
succeeded
Key Results 
Example 
1. Hire 2 new sales people who each make $10K in new 
sales by end of next quarter. 
2. Implement the new sales tracking system in 30 days. 
3. Sell $100K in new products to existing client base.
KEY RESULTS SHOULD BE…
17 
measureable 
we measure ourselves 
on a scale of 0.0 – 1.0
A Stretch 
Perfection isn’t the goal… 
Pushing yourself is
Results per 
Objective

What are OKRs?

What’s in it for SHC? 
What do I need to do? 
Oct-14 20
OKRs start and end with you! 
They are your tool for keeping on track 
and driving your success at work. 
…so most should come from you; then 
make sure you discuss them and align 
with your manager 
Oct-14 21
Because they are a 
tool for you… 
You score You! 
No one else measures you on 
your OKRs…at the end of each 
quarter you score yourself on 
how you think you did on a 
scale of 0.0 – 1.0.
A score of 0.7 out of 1.0 is good… 
A score of 1.0 once is amazing! 
But scoring 1.0 all the 
time probably means 
you’re results are NOT 
really a Stretch!
What are OKRs? 
What’s in it for Me? 
What’s in it for SHC? 
What do I need to do? 
Oct-14 24
Greater Transparency
Focused Execution 
That Moves Fast
What are OKRs? 
What’s in it for Me? 
What’s in it for SHC? 
What do I need to do? 
Oct-14 27
Step 1: Draft your OKRs for 
next quarter 
Remember…no more than 5 Objectives. 
28 
TIP: Start by reviewing your 
annual goals and think about what 
you can do in the next quarter to 
hit your long-term goals.
29 
Step 2: Discuss and Align with 
your manager 
TIP: Explain how you think your OKRs 
are a “stretch” and how hitting them 
(or even getting close) will help you 
meet your long term goals
30 
Step 3: Record Your OKRs 
TIP: Revisit your OKRs often and read 
other’s OKRs so you can see what 
others are working that may affect 
your work.
31 
Step 4: Rate yourself 
Score each of your results under each 
objective on a 0.0 – 1.0 scale 
Your overall Objective score is the average 
of your scores on each result. 
TIP: Review your scores…did you set your 
results too high? Too low? Use this feedback 
to adjust your results for next quarter.
