Objectives focus your team on what matters most — and why it matters. When both the "What" and the "Why" are clear, alignment becomes less elusive.

The strongest key results are almost always written about what we aspire to achieve if everything goes right, and even if there are variables that we don’t fully control.

Standard DIY OKR implementations often suffer from predictable problems that turn a methodology meant to create focus into a messy, time-intensive bureaucratic nightmare.

It's always wild to me how rare it is for organizations to define the terms they use in strategy and goal setting. If you ask 100 people what strategy means, you're going to get 100 different answers.
Having a documented, shared strategy and goal language reduces confusion and increases alignment.

A strong OKR practice connects vision to daily decisions and labor.
That’s how strategy becomes real for people -- when it helps them make decisions about how to invest their time + energy AND helps them decide what *not* to do.

OKRs bring consistency to how progress is defined and evaluated, and consistency builds trust.

In a lot of organizations, OKRs are about numbers and charts and graphs on a dashboard, and often they’re implemented because senior leadership wants more visibility into the organization’s progress.
But OKRs can be *so much more*

Have you ever heard of the 70/20/10 model?
Your 70%? Run-the-business work: known knowns, mandatories, milestones, delivery commitments. Completion is success. That belongs in delivery planning, not your OKRs.
Your 20% and 10%? That's where OKRs live. Work where mere completion isn't success.
One question makes the call: Is completion success?
If yes? That's delivery work, and it needs a plan.
If no? That's where key results come in. -

It's been a minute, so -- hi! I'm Sara Lobkovich. I help organizations stop struggling with OKR implementations and strategy operations that aren't working, and start doing less to achieve more. Stick around for updates and resources for ambitious, visionary CEOs, strategic force multipliers, and people who want to operate more strategically in their careers. For more information, I'll link my website and book in the comments, below!

I've been writing like mad, so if I can just dial down my perfectionism enough to hit "publish," you'll see excerpts here on LinkedIn, with some new work on my blog. From my new "what actually gets an OKR?" model to my POV on what genAI can and can't do in the OKR space, to an actual peek inside an OKR onboarding engagement flow (that might surprise you).

So I'm finally building a few (secure, bespoke) AI-assisted workflows into my client work after hearing from a shocking percentage of employees at client orgs that they're using personal GPT accounts to support their OKR efforts because they don't have corp access. EEP.
-
It's been a wild Q1 ... incredible client work, a few highlights on the book front, and an unplanned website migration (which took me down the Claude Code rabbithole after 25 years away from coding -- my oh my how times have changed).
✨ I've always said that if I don't train agents on my IP someone else will ... and they are.

Teams that do OKRs well don’t try to measure everything; they prioritize goals that genuinely move the needle in terms of progress, and toward important outcomes.

You can't do #userResearch to "validate your assumptions."
Research reveals just how wrong you are. It *absolutely* does not indicate how right you were.
You need #OKRs or some other framework for that.

Weeks like this are so tiring, but thinking about what the impact of this week's labor is going to be for three awesome clients? Worth it.
If you think OKRs are about as much fun as a root canal, drop me a message?
I'd love a chance to show you it doesn't have to be that way. 💕

Simple doesn't mean superficial or not strategic. It means using what we have, being creative with what we don't, and reducing the time and money spent on creating and operating OKRs so we have more to devote to achieving them.
That's what I do: make strategy (and OKRs) that actually gets used. I described it today on a call with a new biz friend as:
Strategy that survives intersection with reality.
-
3. Delivered a near-final draft of company-level OKRs for a rad mid-market services company, developed in a sum total of four live hours. (Yes, you read that right.)
I'm ready for a weekend... but also just sitting here feeling a sense of accomplishment for how *simple* and practical I can make OKRs and performance improvement for clients.

"Eat better" is not a goal; it's a wish! 🎯 This article brilliantly highlights how clarity in "key results" forces us to define what we truly mean by our objectives. It's not just for resolutions, but for product outcomes too.

Organizations don't just need “OKRs"—they need connective tissue between high-level strategy and day-to-day delivery.
My obsession—the "alignment layer," often including OKRs—fills three critical gaps:
* The confidence gap
* The financial focus gap
* The expectation gapWithout it, teams risk wasting resources on activities that don't contribute to strategic achievement.
