Planning ambiguous and challenging goals can be tricky if there isn’t an easy way to track progress and measure success.

For that reason, companies like Google use the OKRs framework, to prioritize their work and keep track of progress towards success.

The Objective is your destination, the Key Results show if you’re heading in the right direction, and the Projects and Tasks are what you’ll do to get your car moving.

1. Set direction with Objectives

An Objective is a description of something that you’d like to achieve in the future. It responds to the question “Where do I want to go?”

Objectives can be long-term, like 1-3 years, to set a direction of the entire organization or career, mid-term, like at the beginning of the following year, or more short-term, like quarters.

Example of Objectives:

• Learn Python
• Build the most customer-centric store that sells everything (Long-term Amazon goal)
• Optimize the sales funnel to close more deals in less time
• Empower our support team to be more self-sufficient
• Create a more goal-oriented culture
