Individual goals

Add individual OKRs & KPIs.

Updated this week

Before you proceed, we highly recommend reading this blog post about individual OKRs and personal development goals.


Enabling Individual OKRs & KPIs

ℹ️ This requires Superadmin rights.

By default, all OKRs and KPIs must have an Owner. An Owner is always the company or a team. However, for individual OKRs or KPIs, it often doesn't make sense to have an Owner, so you can make this field optional.


Creating individual OKRs and KPIs

Without an Owner

From your User page or Home:

For KPIs

  • Click + Add KPI.

  • Add a Name.

  • Add a Description (optional).

  • Add Current value.

  • Add Metric unit (Numerical, Percentage or choose a currency).

  • Select the KPI should: Stay at or above, Stay at or below, Increase to, or Decrease to.

  • Leave Owner blank.

  • Select a Lead.

  • Click Save.

For OKRs

  • Click + Add OKR.

  • Add a Name.

  • Select Alignment.

  • Leave Owner blank.

  • Select a lead.

  • Select a Timeframe.

  • Click Save.

With an Owner

Instead of leaving the Owner field blank, you have 2 options:

  1. Add them to existing Teams (eg. Sales, Marketing) and assign the Lead for the Objective, its Key Results, and Initiatives all to the same person.

  2. Create a special Team (eg. "Individuals & Personal Goals") for all individual goals, and assign this Team as the Owner for all individual OKRs and personal development goals.

In all cases, Supreme users can use private OKRs and KPIs to hide these goals so they're only visible to the individual and their manager.
