OKRs help you achieve your strategy.
While many define OKRs (Objectives and Key Results) as a strategy execution framework, which it certainly is, OKRs is a critical thinking framework that gets teams to think about their most important business metrics. OKRs are cherry picked as shared commitments by teams and not in silos.
So, it’s not surprising that companies are stepping forward to use Objectives and Key Results, to supercharge growth, drive change, innovate or excel in a manner that every employee in the company knows how they contribute.
Organizations like Google are known for their functioning on OKR systems to supercharge growth and drive change and innovation. More than 80% of Silicon Valley startups have adopted OKRs and experienced a meteoric rise in their growth. This is a framework that is built on critical thinking, streamlining teams to business objectives, and being thoughtful about how metrics and work is measured.
‘Objectives and Key Results’ is a framework that was created to suit the agile and rapidly changing business climate of today’s times by aligning teams to strategic priorities while measuring the growth and progress of the company as a whole.
The benefits of OKRs to a company are:
According to MIT Sloan, only 18% of middle managers and 13% of frontline managers can name the company’s strategic priorities. Alignment significantly deteriorates from top to bottom of the organization pyramid, and this is where 99% of the company's execution capability is concentrated.
And, according to the research by Harvard Business Review, on average, 95% of a company’s employees are unaware of, or do not understand its strategy. If the employees who are closest to customers and who operate processes that create value are unaware of the strategy, they surely cannot help the organization implement it effectively.
A framework like OKRs strengthens strategy execution by creating a laser-sharp focus on achieving strategic business outcomes. With OKRs, even frontline teams have immense clarity and alignment, and can become properly equipped to improve high-priority business metrics to impact strategic company growth.
Let’s take a look at how OKRs equip teams to execute company strategy.
When all employees and teams across the organization can connect their activities to larger organization outcomes, and when they know how their tasks contribute to the progress of organizational goals… that is when alignment sets in.
Alignment is the secret sauce in OKRs. OKRs are vertically and bi-directionally or cross functionally aligned. Alignment also calls out the allegiance each team has to another, and which Key Results need to be achieved to help move another KR within the organization.
With OKRs, leadership styles move from telling + directing to exploratory + participative. This is where you shift gears from ‘hand-me-down’ to ‘connect and align.’ Having alignment not just within teams, but within the entire organization, is what makes OKRs such an amazing framework.
Alignment also brings out the best in the CFR (conversations, recognition and feedback) systems. OKRs and CFRs go hand-in-hand, and CFRs act as the spine to a solid OKR implementation.
OKRs are best set as teams or squads, not by team managers or leadership (although the leadership does get involved in the review process while setting OKRs). Team members can execute projects in their own style, while making contributions that are meaningful to them and that connect them to the organization.
OKRs are achieved on two principles: ownership and commitment.
When there is one clear owner for each Key Result, Milestone or action, that is when OKRs are successful. Having orphan KRs and milestones is not recommended. An owner should be accountable for each KR/milestone and drive the rest of the team towards progress. While ownership is the initiative, accountability is the follow-through.
Although there is only one owner, committing to OKRs as a team is the best way to diminish fear as teams should be able to push and inspire each other - as compared to one individual being personally responsible for a failure, which may negatively affect confidence and performance.
OKRs need regularity and rhythm in order to help teams execute strategy with agility. The typical OKR cycle needs discipline around defining/crafting OKRs, having regular check-ins within teams and with leadership. This regularity and discipline sets the muscle and rhythm for teams to achieve their strategy with speed and rigor.
Weekly OKR Check-in meetings are one of the most important OKR rituals to motivate teams to keep making progress after the initial high of writing OKRs has passed. Check-In meetings are to OKRs, what multiple reps are to building a strong muscle. For continued success with OKRs, teams should get together weekly to discuss the task outcomes, KR progress, review their methods, and discuss plans for the next week. This sets the focus on achieving outcomes at all times.
A solid company culture is a result of communication, collaboration and accountability; none of these can be achieved without transparency. OKRs are set in teams and not privately by individuals to ensure this state of transparency throughout the organization. Another way to keep things transparent yet focused is through CFRs (conversations, feedback and recognition).
CFRs are key to having transparency, providing support, and keeping teams inspired by reinforcing teamwork. When OKR Check-in meetings are backed by CFRs, teams get clarity on progress made and the initiatives to focus on. Fitbots has automated features to boost your CFR, where you can give badges of recognition (and more) to teams and individuals.
Something else that creates magic and aids progress to OKRs is Conversation. OKR conversations are specific, focused and outcome-based discussions where teams come together to discuss progress on their outcomes, achievements and learnings. While they celebrate their achievements and wins, much of the conversation is focused on addressing the blockers and finding solutions to decongest the route to achieving your OKRs.

Did you know that misalignment within a company can cost up to a quarter of revenue?
Fitbots offers Alignment Boards and a Misaligned OKRs board that gives a holistic understanding of alignment such that there is no waste of time, effort, or revenue. Teams can easily visualize their horizontal and vertical alignment to each other and to the company OKRs.
Our Misalignment OKRs feature reflects misalignments in real-time. Moreover, team members can align their initiatives, milestones, and actions to Key Results, ensuring that every action leads to a strategic impact.
With Fitbots, your teams don’t have to spend hours finding the latest updates and putting them in a spreadsheet. Fitbots becomes the single source of truth for all your strategic progress. Each team can update the OKRs they’re responsible for, and the update is reflected instantly everywhere, removing the need to transfer data between multiple spreadsheets.
Fitbots can auto-generate board-ready reports, saving you countless hours of collecting data and making it presentable to stakeholders. Fitbots can also generate Individual reports and insights to support performance-related conversations.
Fitbots gives you a holistic view of how your strategy has progressed, and even offers predictions for future progress achievement. On Fitbots, you easily spot trends and insights with our Progress Board and Trends Board. This is great for team check-ins and leadership reviews, because you can see both the overall progress and the week-on-week progress towards OKRs.
Another benefit of using Fitbots is that you can simultaneously manage your OKRs and KPIs. Managing KPIs on Fitbots is easy, making Fitbots the single source of truth for your strategic metrics and saving you the trouble of constantly transferring data.
In our experience, clarifications on OKRs can come, well, just about anytime. While spreadsheets are good for attempting OKRs for the first time, without a coach or a guide, you can expect a lot of wasted time and bandwidth, coupled with multiple bloopers.
Our certified OKR coaches are available on demand and on multi-channel. They have the methodology, maturity and strong industry experience of 17+ years in strategy and consulting. Having worked with 1000s of leadership and next-level teams, our coaches have knowledge and techniques to help you get OKRs right the first time.
Many companies attempt OKRs, but most of them end up dropping off. When it comes to getting OKRs right, there’s a lot of time, patience, and commitment involved.
However, if you’re looking for an effective company-wide OKR adoption and to get it right in the first go, you would need a tool that not only supports, but enables your vision.
