Course Overview
Objectives and Key Results (OKRs) have become a widely used framework for aligning strategy with measurable outcomes across organisations. OKRs in Practice teaches professionals how to design, implement, and manage OKRs at team, department, and enterprise levels.
Participants learn how to write effective objectives, define measurable key results, align goals across teams, and establish cadence for tracking performance. The course explores real-world OKR practices used by organisations such as Google and popularised by management thinkers like John Doerr.
Through hands-on exercises and practical case studies, learners practise building OKR frameworks, aligning team goals with strategic objectives, and running effective OKR review cycles.
