Managing Performance with OKR (Objectives and Key Results)

Many organizations adopt OKRs and then struggle to connect them with everyday performance management, appraisals and team conversations. This program focuses on that link: using OKRs to set direction for teams and individuals, running continuous performance conversations through the CFR approach of conversations, feedback and recognition, deciding how OKRs relate to formal appraisal and rewards, coaching people on progress, and using OKR data in performance reviews without turning ambition into fear. Examples cover Gulf government and corporate performance frameworks where annual appraisal systems already exist.
