Creating and Working with OKR Layers

Build your goal hierarchy with Spark.work's OKR Layers. Group objectives by Strategic Level, Company Level, Department Level, or Individual Level to create a clear roadmap, align everyone towards a shared vision, and track progress at different scales.

Company (Big Picture): Group your objectives by Company Level, aligning everyone towards a shared vision.

Department (Team Power): Organize goals by Department Level to empower teams and celebrate collaborative success.

Individual (Individual Focus): Define personal objectives at the Individual Level to track your progress and growth.

Strategic (Long-term vision): Set objectives that align with the organization's long-term vision and goals beyond the immediate timeframe of regular cycles. These objectives play a crucial role in guiding overall direction and strategic alignment.

To view and manage the company layers, navigate to Perform, open the OKRs section, select Settings and click Layers.

Note: Every Layer wears a unique, pre-chosen color for easy identification.
