The 2020 Global OKR Annual Report

We’re delighted to partner with There Be Giants and help launch this year’s research report, which looks into the way organizations and individuals are using OKRs around the globe. 

When fully embedded, the application of OKRs will impact your entire organization, from the executive to the manager to the individual contributor - allowing everybody to align and contribute to the goal of sustainable growth.  

To learn more about the management and use of OKRs within organizations around the globe, Koan has partnered with There Be Giants for this research project. The results were fascinating and uncovered interesting trends around how OKRs were being used by businesses and the impact they were having.  

This is the second year TBG has conducted this survey and we are pleased to report that our belief that OKRs will become an industry standard in goal setting is moving forward. Initially our method was to collect data from early adopters of OKRs but this year we have widened the net and had responses from a number of different organizations. Our original early adopters have also had another year to track their performance.

What the report covers

We dive into the mechanics of OKRs with a focus on the following five key areas:

• Who is using OKRs
• Why they are choosing to use them 
• How they are going to use them 
• What impact they have seen from using them 
• What they would do differently if they were to start again from the beginning
