Do you know the difference between OKRs and KPIs? Here’s a simple breakdown! ✅ OKRs stand for Objectives and Key Results - They measure progress toward specific, bold goals.  ✅ KPIs stand for Key Performance Indicators - They measure the overall performance and health of a business. ✅ OKRs are action-oriented, driving teams toward future goals.  ✅ KPIs focus on what’s happening now, providing benchmarks for ongoing processes. ✅ OKRs are usually time-bound, with a clear start and end (e.g., quarterly or yearly).  ✅ KPIs are measured continuously and can apply across the whole organization.
