When getting started with Objectives and Key Results (OKRs) the most common questions we get at Steer are:

  • How to write good OKRs?
  • Can you give me examples of good OKRs?
  • What should I put in my OKRs?

To answer these questions we are launching a series of practical and comprehensive OKRs examples, so you can get started and write your own company, department, team or personal OKRs. We will cover everything from Company goals to HR, marketing, sales, product, engineering, customer success and more.

If you want to know what OKRs are and how they can help you and your business, at Steer we’ve wrote a practical guide on OKRs 101.
