Objectives & Key Results (OKR)

OKRs are simple to explain and surprisingly easy to get wrong. Objectives turn into vague aspirations, key results turn into disguised to-do lists, and the whole exercise becomes a quarterly form-filling ritual instead of a tool that actually aligns what the organisation is trying to achieve.

This course teaches OKRs as a goal-setting discipline, not just a template. Participants learn how to write objectives that are genuinely inspiring rather than generic, how to choose key results that measure outcomes instead of activity, and how to cascade goals across teams without every team simply copying the company-level OKRs. The course also covers the review rhythm that keeps OKRs alive between quarters — because most OKR programmes don't fail at the writing stage, they fail from being set once and never looked at again.
