OKR Cascade
- Limit to 3-5 objectives per level, each with 3-5 key results
- Key results must be measurable with current and target values
- Validate parent-child relationships before finalizing
Alignment Scoring
- Target >80% overall alignment; investigate any score below 60%
- Balance scores ensure no team is overloaded
- Horizontal alignment prevents conflicting goals across teams
Team Configuration
- Configure teams to match your actual org structure
- Adjust contribution percentages based on team size
- Platform/Infrastructure teams often support all objectives
- Specialized teams (ML, Data) may only support relevant objectives
