Goal vs. OKR vs. KPI: Analytical Comparison

🔍 Understanding the difference between goals, OKRs, and KPIs is crucial for effective strategic planning and execution. 🎯 Goals are always outcome-based and should be smart, specific, measurable, actionable, responsible, and time-bound. 🎯 OKRs are different from goals because they are non-measurable objectives with a handful of measurable key results driving them. 🔑 Key results are essential for achieving objectives, such as acquiring new accounts and increasing revenue from strategic accounts. 📈 Key performance indicators are always quantifiable, objective, data-based metrics, while OKRs may not always have data sources. 🏆 Objectives can be made more goal-like, with specific outcome-based statements at the corporate level, driving the outcome of the objective.
