How to use the OKR template

Are you struggling to see how individual work connects to broader company goals? Do you have limited visibility into project progress?

Wrike’s OKR template will help you correctly format OKRs and monitor progress to ensure projects stay on track, both in the short and long term. 

This template has multiple Custom Item Types to get you started, including Objectives, Key Results, Action Items, and Deliverables.

Companies often run into problems in strategic planning, such as setting unattainable targets, not making objectives clear to all stakeholders, executing work that doesn’t align to goals, or failing to track progress until the project has already derailed. Keeping OKRs organized and visible can be difficult, and teams often lack the structure for regularly monitoring progress against those OKRs. Wrike’s OKR template will help you create, organize, and monitor individual, team, and company goals. 

Step 1: Build your OKR project

Hold an OKR planning session with your team to determine OKRs. Create new tasks in real time, add key details, and assign accountability for them. Organize them in a shared folder and create subtasks as necessary. 

Create a public Space so all team members and stakeholders can have visibility into OKRs. Each team member can then consider their own contributions toward achieving team OKRs to further the company’s goals. 

Step 2: Track your progress 

This template comes with several Custom Item Types, which will help you get a jump-start on documenting and monitoring your progress. 

These include:

  •  Objectives and Key Results, which aid with clear documentation of your OKRs
  • Action Items, which you’ll use to assign tasks to team members
  • Deliverables, which will support OKRs for documentation

Step 3: Report OKR results

At the end of the quarter or year, it’s important to share OKR results to make adjustments for the next period. As you hit goals and mark subtasks as complete, the green progress bar will fill up, giving you a quick visual of how far you’ve come and how far you have yet to go.
