What is a good company and leadership OKR?

A good company and leadership OKR pairs one clear objective with two to four measurable key results the team can score every week. It describes an outcome rather than a list of activities, sets targets that are ambitious but scoreable, and is reviewed weekly so blockers surface before the quarter gets away from the team.

Agree on ownership. Give each key result a clear owner and a source of data.
