What it means
This is the practical half of goal-setting: how to run quarterly objectives without the ceremony that suits a much larger organisation.
Why it matters
Most small businesses abandon OKRs because they adopt the whole apparatus. One or two objectives, reviewed fortnightly, is enough.
What it looks like in practice
Write key results as outcomes with numbers, not as tasks. "Launch the site" is a task; "40 enquiries a month through the site" is a result.\n\nSeparate them from pay, or the targets become conservative.
What to watch out for
Too many objectives. Three is a focus; eight is a list of everything you were going to do anyway.
Where to get proper advice
Your own figures.
