In recent years, OKR the word more and more popular.
In Silicon Valley, Google, Facebook, Amazon, LinkedIn and other companies have gradually successfully landed OKR, the domestic Internet giants, Tencent, Baidu, drops, millet and other Internet companies are also actively introducing OKR.
OKR in the end is the story behind? What is it with the KPI is the difference?
OKR referred to as "the target with the result of the work key method", consists Objectives (target) and Key Results (key results) two parts. We can OKR in O imagine a final destination you want to go , it always indicates the way forward for you. In addition, you can put KR thought of as a distance marker signs with , it always tell you from destination How far.
Compared to this KPI performance management, OKR more emphasis on management by objectives . KPI generally includes: Evaluation Results + + metric (excitation / penalty), OKR comprises the target (O) + metric (KR).
In addition, KPI is a top-down , the boss set KPI, leaders and employees to "back" index superiors. The OKR advocate is aligned subordinate superior goal by reaching the lower target, thus contributing to reach higher goals, so employees have a great initiative for the development goals .
Here, you may have discovered the charm of OKR: the objectives and assessment peel, let employees voluntarily set goals, complete self-driving force to stimulate employees .
Many people worry about, to team members canceled the KPI performance evaluation, we will work hard work?
In my experience, the opposite. Because OKR gave team members a strong sense of security, they do not worry about what will be able to fulfill the goals of punishment, with the target have a very strong sense of identity, but will often succeed "excited" and devoting themselves to complete .
Therefore, it is not hard to understand why OKR is not only a target management tool, but also encourage and communication tool, full of a lot of humanity and wisdom .
I think, for a long period of time, this target will become increasingly popular management method, its application scenarios will also be more extensive. Everyone needs to grasp the future OKR Work Act, especially the team leader.
