How to successfully set goals for your departments: Applying OKR methodology
Introduction
Class overview
Setting up goals for every role and team members is key if you want your company to grow and succeed: having no framework at all for setting up goals will slow down your journey to getting your own company objectives. In this course you will learn one of the most innovative frameworks to set goals in organizations of all sizes: the OKR framework.
