Using Priority for Objectives for focus

Priorities in Objectives are used as focus enablement tools to help users with the concept of prioritization. Focus is the KEY to success with OKRs.

Objective Priority

At the Objective level, adding a priority to the objective helps you focus on the most important objectives.

To add or edit an Objective Priority:

1. Select the Edit icon on the Objective to open the Edit Objective page.

2. Enter a number in Priority at the bottom of the Edit Objective page.  

  • Objective priority is numeric, from one to x (1-100).
  • It is possible to have dual (or more) priorities of equal value, although it's not recommended. For example, two objectives assigned as your number 1 priority. 
  • The Objective Activity Widget on your Home Page will display the top three Objectives first. If you have two or more objectives assigned a number 1 priority, the objectives are listed by priority number (1) and then alphabetically.  
  • While Inspire does allow more than three objectives, please remember that best practice suggests having only three objectives, to allow you to focus on what is truly most important. If you do have more than three Objectives, click Show More at the bottom of the Objective Activity widget to display the other objectives.
