Discuss the factors necessary to successfully tie OKRs to compensation.

What will be an ideal response?


If OKRs are tied to compensation, the following must be kept in mind.1.Clarify expectations. If you intend to reward contributors who go above and beyond to complete their objectives, you must first identify the criteria for outstanding performance versus just completing your OKRs on time.2.Balance aspirational with operational. Some OKRs can be big stretch goals while others can be simply operational. Once you've determined how many of the goals were stretch from stuff that needed to be done, you can determine a ratio and increase people's performance based on work that they did that was a stretch.3.Consider additional performance factors. Hitting your objectives demonstrates hard work, but they do not cover everything that should be rewarded.4.Drive collaboration, not competition. One of the biggest dangers that comes from rewarding people based on reaching their OKRs is that they may focus too much on their individual OKRs at the expense of those of a team or group.
