IMPROVING OKRS

Summary from the TLDR Web Dev newsletter

To improve OKRs, make sure that objectives clearly describe desired outcomes using a "truth statement" format without numerical targets. Define key results as measurable evidence that the objective has been achieved, focusing on outcomes rather than activities. Prioritize a small number of OKRs that align horizontally across the organization and explicitly balance change-focused OKRs with metrics (like KPIs) that track the ongoing health of the business.
