Example inputs
- Strategic goals for the next 12 months
- [{"goal":"Grow recurring revenue","metric":"Maintenance plan members","current":400,"target":1000,"owner":"Sales Manager"},{"goal":"Improve profitability","metric":"Gross margin %","current":38,"target":45,"owner":"Operations Director"},{"goal":"Deliver faster service","metric":"Avg days to complete job","current":6,"target":3,"owner":""}]
- First quarter
- q1
- How should progress be phased?
- back
- Stretch above target for 'aspirational' key results
- 15
- Max goals your leadership team can actively drive
- 3
Example results
3 strategic goals become 9 key results with Q1 checkpoints; OKR readiness 70/100, but 1 goal still lacks an owner.
- OKR readiness
- 70/100

- Measurable goals
- 3
- Goals needing 2x+ change
- 1
What stands out
1 goal has no owner: Deliver faster service
Goals without a single named owner are the most common reason OKRs stall. Assign one person, not a team.
Grow recurring revenue: 150% change in 12 months
Moving Maintenance plan members from 400 to 1,000 more than doubles it. Commit to the target, but resource it like a major initiative.
Q1 checkpoint plan
Maintenance plan members: 490; Gross margin %: 39; Avg days to complete job: 5.6
Next actions
- Assign a single owner to Deliver faster service this week.
- Score each key result 0.0-1.0 at the end of Q1; reset Q2 milestones if a KR lands below 0.4.
- Hold a weekly 30-minute OKR check-in: status, confidence (1-10), and the one blocker per KR.
Model assumptions & limitations
- Quarterly milestones follow a back-loaded (15/35/65/100%) share of the gap.
- Stretch targets add 15% of the gap beyond the committed target, a common OKR convention, not a rule.
- Readiness deducts points for unowned goals, 2x+ changes, goals above leadership capacity, and goals with no change.
