It’s always a good idea to write out and document your companies approach to goal setting. Areas you may want to cover could include…

The process behind how your OKRs are created

Who’s involved? how long does it take? how do ideas get surfaced? where are current and target figures pulled from?

The rationale behind them

Why are they what they are? Is there a longer or shorter term plan behind it that gives them more context? How will they tie into any other vision / goal statements? Are they S.M.A.R.T?

Approach & attitude

Are they more to serve as guidelines or as strict targets to hit? Are there regular checkpoints & meetings? What is the expectation around hitting / missing targets?

How they tie into your projects & workflow

How do the day to day tasks and projects tie into these overall objectives? How does each action help towards particular Key Rates?
