Creating an Individual Objective

Inspire has individual objectives, team objectives, and company-level objectives.  Individual objectives allow any user to create and manage their own OKRs.

An objective is a statement of a broad, qualitative goal designed to propel you forward in the desired direction. An objective answers the question, "What do I/we want to accomplish?"
