How to use Customer Success OKRs well

Strong OKRs keep the team focused on measurable outcomes instead of a long task list. That means picking a clear objective, limiting the number of competing priorities, and reviewing progress every week.

Use OKRs to define the outcomes customers should achieve and the business results you need, such as retention, product adoption, or expansion readiness.
