OKR Check-in
A lightweight weekly or bi-weekly ritual where teams briefly review progress on their Key Results, update confidence levels, surface blockers, and decide if course corrections are needed. Check-ins prevent OKRs from becoming a quarterly filing exercise — they make OKRs a living part of how the team works.
Cómo ejecutarlo
- 1
Each person/team updates their Key Result progress before the meeting (not during).
- 2
Go through each KR in turn: What's the current status? Is the confidence level (0-100%) going up or down?
- 3
For any KR with declining confidence: What's the blocker? What needs to change? Do we need to revise the KR?
- 4
Quick wins: celebrate meaningful progress, don't skip this.
- 5
Parking lot: any strategic shifts or external changes that affect OKRs? Flag for quarterly review.
- 6
Close in <30 minutes. This is a pulse check, not a planning session.
Consejos
Confidence level changes are more informative than raw numbers. A KR at 30% with rising confidence is healthier than one at 80% declining.
If a KR hasn't moved in 2 weeks: it either needs attention or it's a task masquerading as a KR.
Don't use check-ins to add new KRs. Save changes for mid-quarter or quarterly review.
Keep the tone curious, not evaluative. 'What's happening?' not 'Why haven't you hit this?'
Variaciones
Async check-in: team updates a shared doc Friday afternoon; manager reviews and comments Monday morning. Async-first is faster and creates a written record.
