Progress drivers for Objectives

Customize how an Objective's progress is calculated.

Updated this week

An Objective's progress can be based on either its Key Results or its Aligned OKRs — depending on what the Progress driver is set to. It's also possible to assign different weights to the Key Results or Aligned OKRs to customize the calculation.


Allow Aligned OKRs to drive progress

By default, an Objective's progress is based on its Key Results.

If you want to have the option for aligned OKRs to drive progress for your Objective, you must make sure that Allow Aligned OKRs to drive progress is enabled in Configure > Features > Goal management. Note that you need to be a Superadmin to access Configure.


Weighing Key Results or Aligned OKRs

ℹ️ Available on Supreme.

By default, the Key Results or Aligned OKRs will be weighted equally.

In some case, an Objective's Key Results (or aligned OKRs) should not all have an equal impact on the Objective's progress. Or maybe you also want to include an Initiative in the Objective's progress calculation. In those cases, you can adjust the weight.

The following video explains how:

How to adjust the weight

Open your Objective and click on Key Results (or Aligned OKRs) next to Progress driver in the right side panel:

Select the appropriate weight in the dropdown menu then hit Save.

Traditionally only Key Results impact the Objective's progress, so any Initiatives will have a 0 weighting by default. If you feel that an Initiative should impact Objective's progress, you can also do so. Just click "Also show Initiatives":

Then you can select the appropriate weight in the dropdown menu and hit Save.


Checking the Progress driver of an Objective

You can check how your progress is calculated by hovering over the progress bar on a profile page:

Or by hovering over an Objective on the Strategy Map:
