There’s no denying that implementing OKRs in your business can be daunting. However, for many SME recruitment business owners, you don’t have to set up incredibly complex systems to make big improvements in 90 days.
 
𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐆𝐚𝐦𝐞 𝐑𝐮𝐥𝐞𝐬:
📍Senior Leaders make a list of the top 5 *Objectives to be achieved in the next 90 days
📍 Decide on the top 1 or 2 objectives & put the others aside
📍 Break each objective in to 1-2 **Projects
📍 Each project has 2-4 ***Key Results
📍 Select ****Project Team members
📍 Get the team to break the project into 3x 30-day periods
📍 The team now set 2-4 Key Results for each 30-day period  
📍 Tell everyone in the business about each project
📍 Create a shared folder so everyone in the company can keep track of the project
📍 Have a quick weekly check-in with each project team and a senior stakeholder
📍 At the end of each 30-day period score each key result out of 3 or similar simple method (like ☹️/😐/🙂)
📍 Get the company together to announce the 90 day project results
📍 Remember this is about learning and improving, not blaming or shaming
