1. OKRs (Objectives and Key Results) help keep employees engaged by providing transparency into how individual work contributes to company goals. Without this, 70% of workers feel disengaged. 2. OKRs are cascaded throughout a company in Perdoo software. Objectives define where the company is going, while key results and todos define how it will get there and align efforts. 3. Using OKRs increases an organization's learning through regular reviews of progress on key results and objectives, allowing them to improve goals and priorities over time.

Benefits of
OKR

2. OKR is a great way
to keep everyone engaged
1
“We don’t see the bigger picture, the value of our work
or how it contributes to the goals of the company.”
70% of workers are disengaged
and dissatisfied at work.
Disengaged workers cost companies
$500 billion per year
Within Perdoo you can set OKRs on company, team & individual level. Create
dependencies and link your OKRs together. So everyone can see, how everything
is connected. The result is ultimate engagement.

3. Start with your mission &vision,
from there derive your Objectives.
Together they tell you Where.
Todos are the things you do to
achieve your Key Results.
Together they tell you How.
OKR helps translating
strategy into action
2
Perdoo allows you to
cascade your OKRs
throughout your company.
Top-down & bottom-up.
From Objectives, via Key
Results, to Todos.

4. OKR increases an
organisation’s learning curve
3
Sit together with your team
and review last quarter’s
results. Not satisfied? Were
you working on the wrong
things? Or the right things
but not good enough?
Improve in the next quarter.
Only Key Results get graded. An Objective’s grade is the average of its Key
Results. A good Key Result always enables objective grading. Objective grading is
necessary for learning. Grading shall never be used for employee evaluation.
You can build up a history in Perdoo and follow improvements over time.

5. OKR creates
transparency & overview
4
Every individual & team
has his or her own OKR
page in Perdoo. On the
dashboard, easily see
what’s going on and how
everyone is progressing.
We believe that organisations need 1 tool to which everybody has access.
Sales, Marketing, Operations, they all use their own software. Perdoo brings
everything together in 1 tool where the essence of the organisation is managed:
its OKRs. The result is transparency, overview & accountability.

6. OKR is perfect for
aligning all the efforts
5
By linking all objectives & key results in Perdoo, it’s easy to spot what should and what
shouldn’t be done. It also enables better goal-setting & prioritization.
Put 4 strong men in a rowing boat,
but if the efforts are not aligned,
the boat is not going to win.

7. OKR builds teams
that make things happen

8. Perdoo brings the three ingredients for growth—strategy,
goals, and people—together on an easy-to-use platform. It
enables CEOs to communicate the strategy in real-time, so
that teams and employees can align their efforts to drive the
results that matter—using KPIs & OKRs.

consultant on a mission to help companies realize their ambitions. Working
as a consultant, he realized that too many organizations fail to achieve the
results they desire. Henrik learned first-hand that goals bridge the gap
between today’s reality and a desired future, and are a powerful tool to
focus, align & engage the organization. This resulted in him launching
Perdoo—a goal management software for business—together with Jonathan
