Introducing Evolutionary OKRs
OKRs are a method for setting collaborative, objectively measurable goals made popular by the book Measure What Matters, which creates enormous excitement about the potential of OKRs, but leaves many teams and leaders frustrating trying to figure out how to implement them.
This episode introduces the Red Currant Collective brand of OKRs: No-BS OKRs (formerly Evolutionary OKRs, still used in some corporate environments). No-BS OKRs are designed to create meaningful change and help organizations transform and actually do better.

The Goal-ification of OKRs
With the recent launch of Microsoft Viva Goals, and Asana Goals, this episode touches on how OKRs are moving more mainstream. We also share why and how — even in casual goal-setting approaches — the term “Key Results” should be treated as a term of art, with a careful definition and usage to preserve the power of Key Results in goal-setting.
Useful Objectives & Key Results
OKRs are a focus and alignment tool that help organizations organize to achieve greater impact, unlock motivation, increase accountability, reduce wasted effort, and work better together.
Here you’ll find simple step-by-step resources to help you create and implement an approach to OKRs (in the context of your existing methodologies and frameworks) that will actually get used and drive impact.
