Introducing OKR Tracking in Groupthink

Elle Morrill

Groupthink now has OKR tracking so you can associate agenda items with your goals!

Have you ever sat in that meeting where you’re wondering: “what the heck does this convo have to do with our goals?” or even worse “who is this evil mastermind who makes doing nothing look so good?”

(╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻

When you have a complete record of all the spoken content in your meetings, you’re literally speaking your business into existence. But what happens if you’re spending a lot of time talking about the wrong things?

We’re introducing OKR tracking to connect the dots between what you say in meetings and what you are trying to accomplish. Login and go to https://agendas.groupthink.com/objectives to set yours today!

Go to the “Objectives” item in the sidebar to get started.Define and nest your objectives and key results.Write out your goals and cascade them through your organization by assigning a directly responsible individual for each one.

Associate your goals with agenda items to stay on track. Once you define goals, you’ll see the option to select a goal to associate with an agenda item in a drop-down menu, like this:

What else should we build to take OKRs to a next level?Here are some ideas we’re considering:

  • Summarize all the agenda items related to a given OKR and the contributions made by different individuals
  • Integrate data (from other SaaS tools) and other context to visualize the overall work-stream and metrics for a goal
  • Contribution graphs for spoken contributions made during meetings (Github/Gitlab-style)
  • Detect/infer goals to associate with an agenda is associated with
  • Flag emergent goals that aren’t included in the OKRs list

We’re shipping early and often to get new features in your hands, and would love to hear what you think comes next on the roadmap for OKRs. Please drop us a note at hello@groupthink.com
