OKRs provide a collaborative goal-setting framework helping business leaders clarify their strategy and cascade what’s most important throughout the wider business. All employees know exactly what they should be working on to achieve the desired business results. OKRs provide an effective way to measure performance and achievements in line with the strategic direction and vision of the business. We recommend having no more than 3 Objectives that focus specifically on the ‘what’ you want to achieve. These should be significant, action-orientated and inspirational to encourage motivation. The more tightly focused they are, the better.
Key Results are stepping stones or milestones set to help you achieve each of the Objectives, against which you can clearly monitor performance to signal whether you are on target or not. We recommend having no more than 5 Key Results per Objective to maintain a tight focus and avoid overwhelm. Key Results should be measurable, specific, time-bound and whilst they need to be realistic, it’s essential they include a suitable amount of stretch to really move things forward.

1-3-5® is a simple principle that helps businesses sharpen their focus and clarify what’s most important to drive results.

Having a 1-3-5® helps improve communication and ultimately achieve results faster, as objectives cascade throughout the business and teams become more aligned and engaged, thus becoming more effective and productive. The foundation of Reclaro is 1-3-5® which was created as a highly effective business planning methodology by our Founder and CEO, Pete Wilkinson, many years ago. Hundreds of businesses around the world use 1-3-5® to turbocharge their results.
The 1-3-5® performance system is usually applied to top-level management initially and then rolled out amongst wider teams. Most 1-3-5® plans apply to a period of 12 to 18 months for which you clarify 1 Vision, set 3 Objectives to achieve that Vision, and break down each objective into 5 Goals.

Many hugely successful businesses such as Google, Facebook, Airbnb, Spotify, Intel, LinkedIn, Amazon, Dropbox, Eventbrite, Microsoft, Netflix, Salesforce, Slack, Twitter, Uber and Yahoo all launched OKRs in their early days to accelerate growth. Each of these has grown immensely over the past decade. However, they all started somewhere and were much smaller than they are now.

Overall, we’ve noticed they have the following common characteristics:
