Get started with OKRs
Are your development teams still focused on ploughing through the endless backlog of product features, unaware of how they meet your product and organisational vision? Or worse, hindering your ability to deliver it.
Objectives and key results (OKRs) are a goal-setting framework for truly agile organisations. You can use OKRs to drive your roadmap to achieve your organisational goals, keeping you aligned with the company vision and delivering customer value. Switch to a goal-orientated OKR roadmap, forget the legacy feature list, and focus on achieving your OKRs each quarter instead.
