How to set amazing OKRs with your team

Use this OKR Setting Template to easily prepare for your OKR workshop, facilitate an incredible workshop and set an OKR that your team love!

If you’re wanting to get the absolute most out of your team, facilitate an incredible OKR workshop for them. This ultimate guide covers everything you need to do before, during and after your OKR Workshop. I’ve broken it down for you as it is a little bit different depending if you’re setting a Company OKR or Team OKR.

Running your OKR workshop in person, rather than remote? No worries! You can print out the Google Sheets version included in the Template kit to get you rolling fast!

How do you prepare for the OKR Setting Workshop?

Meetings can be a huge waste of time. That's why we want to make sure everyone comes in fully prepared. Here's the two key asks for your team:

  • Review the company OKR: Review the company OKR prior to our workshop. Consider how we can contribute to this OKR. Also consider whether there are other priorities which need to address. If there is no company OKR, reflect on the business goals and objectives.
  • Draft an objective: Following the reflection above, draft an Objective for the quarter. This is based on what you believe is most important. The Objective answers the question: “If nothing were to be achieved this quarter except for one thing, what would that need to be?"

    • What's the agenda for an OKR Setting Workshop?

    Your OKR Goal Setting Workshop should be broken down as follows:

    1. Score previous quarter and discuss outcomes (20 minutes)
    2. Retrospective on lessons learned (20 minutes)
    3. Break – 15 minutes
    4. OKR setting for the next cycle – 2 - 3 hours  
      1. Discuss strategic priorities - 30 minutes
      2. Define the objective for the 6 weeks - 45 minutes
      3. Identify Key Results for the objective - 45 minutes
      4. Identify key initiatives needed to deliver on the OKR - 30 minutes
    5. Communications plan – 20 minutes
    6. Close & retrospective on the day – 20 minutes
