OKRs - Objectives and Key Results is an approach to setting goals that helps organisations connect strategy to execution. OKR was created by Andy Grove at Intel and popularised when John Doerr shared the framework with Google. Now it is widely used in technology organisations and beyond.

OKR is a framework that offers significant benefits when used for the right opportunities. In the simplest terms, OKR helps us achieve our most important outcomes because it encourages certain kinds of behaviour.

This article aims to help you plan and run an OKR setting session. Meetings are expensive and one of the most significant sources of wasted time. They're also the point where we make some of our most critical decisions.

Good meetings are a little like a product. Good planning, design and execution are rewarded.
