OKRs
OKRs (Objectives and Key Results) is a goal-setting framework used by organizations and teams to define measurable goals and track outcomes. It involves setting ambitious Objectives (qualitative goals) and linking them to specific, quantifiable Key Results that measure progress. This methodology helps align efforts, increase transparency, and drive focus on achieving impactful results.
Developers should learn OKRs to improve project planning, team alignment, and productivity in agile or collaborative environments. It's particularly useful for setting clear priorities in software development, tracking sprint outcomes, and ensuring technical work aligns with business objectives, such as in startups or tech companies like Google, which popularized the framework.
