OKR Google Success with Examples
Although there are so many ways to improve a company's business status, OKR has become widely used day by day. Benefits of OKR methodology seems to be one of the root causes of this stream. Even some of the largest companies of the Fortune 500, have adopted the methodology in the last years. One successful example for this case is Google. "How does Google use OKR ?" is what we are going to cover in this article.
Almost 6 years ago, one of the Google's investors made a presentation and, said that it is the time for beginning to use OKR for reaching Google's future goals.
According to that presentation, Google operates OKR as firstly set up an objective. Google's investor indicated some features that should be kept in view:
The Objective
- is ambitious
- feels a tad uncomfortable
- definitive and measurable
When you set up an objective, initially you should define a goal by a sentence. For example, if the goal is "make my website prettier", convert it to measurable and numerical parameters. To better illustrate, "make my website 30% faster", or, "increase engagement 20%" may become your objectives.
Features of Google's Objectives
When Google's partner Rick Klau worked on blogger at Google, he set up a few objectives for each quarter. Google has chosen two types of OKRs: annual OKRs, and quarterly OKRs.
- annual OKRs > can evolve as the year evolves, flexible
- quarterly OKRs > not any change
He also says that Google promotes OKRs at a company level, at a team level, and at a personal level. Thanks to this, every kind of business comes together to keep company on track.
