Workflow: Quarterly Strategic Planning

Step 1: Define Strategic Focus

Strategy	When to Use
Growth	Scaling user base, market expansion
Retention	Reducing churn, improving LTV
Revenue	Increasing ARPU, new monetization
Innovation	Market differentiation, new capabilities
Operational	Improving efficiency, scaling operations

See references/strategy_types.md for detailed guidance.

Step 2: Gather Input Metrics

{
  "current": 100000,      // Current MAU
  "target": 150000,       // Target MAU
  "current_nps": 40,      // Current NPS
  "target_nps": 60        // Target NPS
}

Step 3: Configure Teams & Run Generator

# Default teams
python scripts/okr_cascade_generator.py growth

# Custom org structure with contribution percentage
python scripts/okr_cascade_generator.py growth \
  --teams "Core,Platform,Mobile,AI" \
  --contribution 0.3

Step 4: Review Alignment Scores

Score	Target	Action if Below
Vertical Alignment	>90%	Ensure all objectives link to parent
Horizontal Alignment	>75%	Check for team coordination gaps
Coverage	>80%	Validate all company OKRs are addressed
Balance	>80%	Redistribute if one team is overloaded
Overall	>80%	<60% needs restructuring

Step 5: Refine, Validate, and Export

Before finalizing:

• Review generated objectives with stakeholders
• Adjust team assignments based on capacity
• Validate contribution percentages are realistic
• Ensure no conflicting objectives across teams
• Set up tracking cadence (bi-weekly check-ins)

# Export JSON for tools like Lattice, Ally, Workboard
python scripts/okr_cascade_generator.py growth --json > q1_okrs.json

Best Practices

OKR Cascade

• Limit to 3-5 objectives per level, each with 3-5 key results
• Key results must be measurable with current and target values
• Validate parent-child relationships before finalizing

Alignment Scoring

• Target >80% overall alignment; investigate any score below 60%
• Balance scores ensure no team is overloaded
• Horizontal alignment prevents conflicting goals across teams

Team Configuration

• Configure teams to match your actual org structure
• Adjust contribution percentages based on team size
• Platform/Infrastructure teams often support all objectives
• Specialized teams (ML, Data) may only support relevant objectives
